This document discusses the classification, properties, reactions, and industrial preparation of alcohols and phenols. It classifies alcohols based on their structure as primary, secondary or tertiary alcohols. It also classifies them based on the number of -OH groups they contain. The document discusses industrial preparation methods for alcohols like hydroboration oxidation. It also discusses common chemical reactions of alcohols like combustion, esterification and Victor Meyer test. For phenols, it discusses methods of preparation from chlorobenzene, Grignard reagent, benzene sulphonic acid, aniline and cumene. It also explains reactions of phenols like oxidation, Kolbe
