Naming Alcohols
Name the longest carbon chain containing the
OH group, use the –ol suffix
 Number the chain to give the OH the lowest
number
 Give the location and name of other substituents
in alphabetical order.

Solubility
“Like dissolves like” explains solubility
 Alkanes are nonpolar



they are insoluble in water
Ethers are slightly polar
ethers with small carbon chains are water soluble
 ethers with long carbon chains are water insoluble


Alcohols are polar
alcohols with small/medium C chains are soluble
 alcohols with large C chains are water insoluble.

Oxidation Reaction

In one kind of oxidation rxn of alcohols, the carbon
bearing the OH turns into a C=O group
If the C bearing the OH is attached to one other
carbon or less, an aldehyde forms
 If the C bearing the OH is attached to two other
carbons, a ketone forms
 If the C bearing the OH is attached to three other
carbons, no reaction happens.

Properties
Aldehydes and ketones are slightly polar
 They tend to have similar bps to ethers of the
same molar mass
 They tend to have much lower bps than
alcohols, because alcohols are much more polar
 Aldehydes and ketones of 5 C atoms or less are
soluble in water

Chemical Tests

In Tollens’ test, an aldehyde is oxidized to a
carboxylic acid. Silver also forms.
CH3CHO + 2 Ag+  2 Ag(s) + CH3COOH
21
22
Chemical Tests

In Benedict’s test, an aldehyde that has an
OH group on the next carbon forms a
carboxylic acid. Red ppt also forms.
RCHO + 2Cu2+  Cu2O(s) + RCOOH

24
Isomers
Isomers are compounds with the same
formula, but the atoms are attached
differently
 “Stereoisomers” have the atoms arranged
differently in space--they are related as
mirror images.

25
Chiral Carbons

Chiral carbons are tetrahedral carbons with
four different attachments
