16. • The structure of alcohols, phenols and ethers are much closer to water.
• Alcohols and phenols both contain hydroxyl (–OH) group attached to alkyl and phenyl
groups, respectively.
• In ether, both hydrogen atoms of water are replaced by alkyl or phenyl groups.
• The aliphatic organic compounds containing hydroxyl group –OH, as functional group are
called alcohols.
18.1.0 – Alcohols - Introduction
Water Alcohol
Phenol
Ether
17. • Alcohols containing one –OH group are
called monohydric alcohols and those
containing two or more hydroxyl groups
are known as polyhydric alcohol.
• The monohydric alcohols are classified
into the following three families,
depending on which carbon the
hydroxyl group is attached.
o Primary alcohol.
o Secondary alcohol.
o Tertiary alcohol.

21. • The longest chain of carbon atoms
containing the hydroxyl group is selected as
the parent hydrocarbon.
• The ending ‘e’ of the parent hydrocarbon
(alkane) is replaced by ‘ol’.
• The position of the –OH group is indicated
by placing the number of carbon, to which –
OH is attached, before the name of alcohol.
• The carbon chain bearing –OH group is
numbered, beginning from that end which
would assign the lowest possible number to
carbon atom linked to the –OH group.
• The presence of more than one –OH groups
is indicated by suffixes -diol, –triol, etc., and
repeating the number of carbon atoms on
which –OH groups are attached.

23. • Alcohols upto butanol are generally colorless
liquids with characteristic sweet smell and
burning taste.
• Smaller alcohols are readily soluble in water
but as molecular weight increases, alcohols
become insoluble in water.
o Still polar but ratio of hydroxyl groups to carbons
in the chain determines solubility.
o Diols and triols are more soluble than those with
only a single hydroxyl group.
• The solubility of alcohols is due to hydrogen
bonding which is significant in lower alcohols
but decreases in higher alcohols.
• Melting and boiling points of alcohols are
higher than corresponding alkanes.
• This is due to hydrogen bonding which is
present in alcohols but absent in alkanes.

25. • The alcohol functional group consists of the O atom bonded to a C atom and an H atom via
sigma bonds.
• The measured C–O–H bond angle in methanol is 108.9°, very close to the perfectly tetrahedral
bond angle of 109.5°.
• The oxygen atom of an alcohol is also sp3 hybridized.
• Two sp3 hybridized orbitals of oxygen form sigma bonds with atoms of carbon and hydrogen,
and the remaining two sp3 hybrid orbitals each contain an unshared pair of electrons.
• Both the C–O and O–H bonds are polar due to the high electronegativity of the O atom.

26. • Hydration of alkenes is carried
out in the following two steps.
o Preparation of alkyl hydrogen
sulphate.
o Hydrolysis of alkyl hydrogen
sulphate.
• In the first step, alkenes are
dissolved in concentrated
H2SO4 to form alkyl hydrogen
sulfate.
• In the second step, on dilution
with water followed by heating,
alkyl hydrogen sulfates are
hydrolyzed to form alcohols.

33. 18.1.5.4 – Alcohols - Preparation - Reduction (hydration) of
aldehydes, ketones and carboxylic acid
• Besides reducing aldehydes, ketones and ester, Lithium tetrahydroaluminate (LiAlH4) also reduces carboxylic
acids in the presence of water to produce alcohols.
• The reduction of carboxylic acid happens in two stages - first to form an aldehyde and then a primary alcohol.
Because lithium tetrahydridoaluminate reacts rapidly with aldehydes, it is impossible to stop at the halfway
stage.
• Due to violent reaction of LiAlH4 with water, the reactions are carried out in solution in ether!
34. 18.1.5.4 – Alcohols - Preparation - Reduction (hydrogenation) of
aldehydes and ketones
• Another strong reducing agent but which does not violently react with water, is sodium
borohydride NaBH4, which is often used as a safer alternative to LiAlH4.
• It can not be used with carboxylic acids since it isn't reactive enough to reduce carboxylic acids.
35. • Esters react with Grignard’s reagent to form aldehyde.
• The aldehyde so form reacts with another molecule of Grignard’s reagent to
form alcohol.

36. • In reality the carboxylic acids and esters are reduced to produce alcohols.
• Elaboration of mechanism:
o Carboxylic acids and esters are less reactive to Nu than aldehydes or ketones.
o As a result, they can only be reduced by LiAlH4 and NOT by the less reactive sodium
borohydride NaBH4.
o Each reaction requires that 2 hydrides be added to the carbonyl carbon of acids or
esters.
18.1.5.4.2 – Alcohols - Preparation - Reduction of carboxylic acid
and esters
38. • Alcohols react with other reagents due to the breaking of C–O and O–H
bonds in R–O–H molecules.
• Which bond breaks, depends upon the nature of attacking reagent.
o If a nucleophile attacks, C–O bond breaks.
o If an electrophile attacks, O–H bond breaks.
• The order of reactivity of alcohols with respect to cleavage of C–O bond is
tertiary alcohol > secondary alcohol > primary alcohol.
• The order of reactivity of alcohols with respect to cleavage of O–H bond is
CH3OH > Primary alcohol > Secondary alcohol > tertiary alcohol

39. • The reactions of alcohols may be divided into four types.
o Reactions in which C–O bond is broken (reaction # 1,2,3,4).
o Reactions in which O–H bond is broken (reaction # 5).
o Reactions in which oxygen of an alcohol acts as a base (reaction # 5).
o Oxidation of alcohols (reaction # 6).
18.1.7 – Alcohols - Reactions
40. • Due to the presence of unshared electron pairs on the oxygen atoms of alcohols, they act as
bases and react with halogen acids to form their respective alkyl halides.
• The C–O bond in an alcohol is very slightly polarized, which means the –OH group can not be
substituted by an alkyl.
• In fact the alcohol acting as a base first forms an alkyl oxonium ion.
• Then, the C–O bond becomes highly polarized and the electrophile carbon is easily attached by
a nucleophile.

41. • The orders of reactivity of halogen acids and alcohols are
o HI> HBr > HCl
o ter-alcohol > sec-alcohol > prim-alcohol.
• HCl and prim-alcohol are the least reactive amongst halogen acids and
alcohols respectively.
• Therefore, they react only in the presence of a catalyst.
• A solution of ZnCl2 in concentrated HCl is used as a catalyst.

42. • It is a test for identification of primary, secondary and tertiary alcohols.
• The difference of chemical reactivity of alcohols with halogen acids is used for their
identification.
• For this purpose, alcohol is treated with an equimolar solution of ZnCl2 in concentrated
HCl.
o Tertiary alcohol immediately forms an insoluble layer of a ter-alkyl chloride.
o Secondary alkyl forms an insoluble sec-alkyl chloride in 5-10 min.
o Primary alcohol forms an insoluble prim-alkyl chloride on heating.

45. • Synthesis of ethers via acid-catalyzed condensation of
alcohols.
• Typical requirements are H2SO4 and heat.
• In general, typically limited to symmetric ethers of primary
alcohols.
• The method is not suitable for unsymmetrical ethers.
• The substitution involves the O nucleophile of one alcohol
attacking the electrophilic O of the other alcohol,
displacing a water molecule.
18.1.7.4 – Alcohols - Reactions - Acid catalyzed dehydration
46. • An acid/base reaction.
• Protonation of the alcoholic oxygen to make better leaving group.
• This step is very fast and reversible.
• The lone electron pair on the oxygen makes it a good Lewis base.
18.1.7.4.1.1 – Alcohols - Reactions - Acid catalyzed dehydration -
Mechanism - Step 1 Protonation of alcohol
47. • The O of the second alcohol molecule functions as the nuleophile and attacks
to displace the good leaving group, a neutral water molecule, by cleaving the
C–O bond.
• This creates an carbocation intermediate.

48. • Another acid/base reaction.
• The proton is removed by a suitable base (here a water molecule, ROH is
another alternative) to give the ether product.

compounds.
• The reaction is selective for 1,2-diols.

60. • Two alcohol molecules react with each other to produce ether via dehydration.
• The reaction is a 3 step process as shown below.
18.1.7.8 – Alcohols - Reactions - Alcohol with alcohol
(dehydration)
61. • An alcohol is converted into an alkene by dehydration: elimination of a molecule of water.
• Dehydration requires the presence of an acid and the application of heat.
• It is generally carried out in either of two ways, heating the alcohol with sulfuric or phosphoric acid to temperatures as
high as 200, or passing the alcohol vapor over alumina, Al2O3 , at 350-400, alumina here serving as a Lewis acid.
• Ease of dehydration of alcohols : 3° > 2° > 1°
• Where isomeric alkenes can be formed, we again find the tendency for one isomer to predominate. Thus, sec-butyl
alcohol, which might yield both 2-butene and 1-butene, actually yields almost exclusively the 2-isomer.
• The formation of 2-butene from n-butyl alcohol illustrates a characteristic of dehydration that is not shared by
dehydrohalogenalion: the double bond can be formed at a position remote from the carbon originally holding the -OH
group.
• It is chiefly because of the greater certainty as to where the double bond will appear that dehydrohalogeation is often
preferred over dehydration as a method of making alkenes.

bonding, both with water molecules and among
themselves as compared to alcohols of similar
molecular weight.
• Hence, they have lower boiling points and are
less soluble in water and other polar solvents
than alcohols of similar molecular weight.
• Many thiols have strong odors resembling that
of garlic or rotten eggs.
• Thiols are used as odorants to assist in the
detection of natural gas (which in pure form is
odorless), and the “smell of natural gas” is due
to the smell of the thiol used as the odorant.
• Thiols are sometimes referred to as mercaptans
“capturing mercury”.
18.1.8.2 – Alcohols - Sulfur analogues (Thiols, RSH) - Physical
properties
64. • Structure is generally similar to alcohols but bonds to S are longer and
weaker than those to O.
• The thiol functional group consists of an S atom bonded to a C atom and a H
atom via sigma bonds.
• The S–H bond is less polar than that in alcohols since S is less
electronegative than O.
18.1.8.2 – Alcohols - Sulfur analogues (Thiols, RSH) - Structure
65. • Thiols are weak acids but more
acidic than similar alcohols, e.g, R–
S–H (pKa = 10) versus R–O–H
(pKa≈16 to 19).
• Thiols are also much more
nucleophilic than similar alcohols. In
fact, R–S–H is about as nucleophilic
as RO-.
• Thiols are readily oxidized but to S–
O systems rather than C=S systems.
• Thiols are commonly oxidized to
disulfides, R–S–S–R, a biologically
important reaction.

71. • Aromatic compounds containing one or more –OH groups, directly attached
with a carbon of benzene ring are called phenols.
• The simplest example is phenol, which is also known as carbolic acid, i.e.,
C6H5OH.
• It was first obtained from coal tar by Runge in 1834.
• Phenol is derived from the old name for benzene (phene), to include the suffix
‘ol’ indicates the presence of a hydroxyl group.
• Caution: The word ‘phenol’ (C6H5–OH) is often confused with ‘phenyl’ (C6H5).
• Phenols can be obtained via substitution reactions, with the hydrolysis of
diazonium salts, being the most important laboratory method.
• Phenols are acidic and are important intermediates in the preparation of aryl
ethers C6H5–O–R.
18.2.0 – Phenols - Introduction
72. • Phenols are named just like other derivatives of benzene.
• Most of the members of aromatic family have special names.
• In IUPAC system, –OH group is represented by name hydroxyl and used as a prefix, while the benzene part of
the molecule is used as a suffix.

73. • The alcohol functional group consists of an O atom bonded to an sp2-
hybridized around C atom and a H atom via sigma bonds.
• Both the C–O and the O–H bonds are polar due to the high electronegativity
of the O atom.
• Conjugation exists between the unshared electron pair on the oxygen and
the carbon atom of ring.
• As compared to simple alcohols, this results in
o A shorter carbon-oxygen bond distance.
o A more basic hydroxyl oxygen.
o A more acidic hydroxyl proton (–OH).
18.2.2 – Phenols - Structure
74. • Phenol is a colorless, crystalline, poisonous solid with characteristic phenolic
odor having melting point 41°C and boiling point 182°C.
• It is sparingly soluble in water forming pink solution at room temperature
but completely soluble above 68.5°C.
• It is poisonous and causes blisters on the skin.
• It is used as a disinfectant and in washrooms.
• It has distinctive odor.
• It is a polar compound due to hydroxyl group.
• Component of flavoring and fragrances.
18.2.3 – Phenols - Physical properties
75. • Phenol exists as a resonance hybrid of 5 structures.
• Due to resonance, oxygen atom of the –OH group acquires a positive charge (as in structures III to V) and hence attracts electron pair of O–H bond
leading to the release of hydrogen atom as proton.
• Carbon atom of the C–OH group in phenol being sp2 hybridized is more electron attracting than the sp3 hybridized carbon atom in alcohols.
• Thus in phenols, there is greater I-effect which facilitates proton release, which means that phenols are more acidic than alcohols.
• Phenol is a weak acid and the position of equilibrium lies well to the left. Phenol can lose a hydrogen ion because the phenoxide ion formed is stabilised to
some extent.
o The negative charge on the oxygen atom is delocalised around the ring. The more stable the ion is, the more likely it is to form.
o One of the lone pairs on the oxygen atom overlaps with the delocalised electrons on the benzene ring.
o This overlap leads to a delocalization which extends from the ring out over the oxygen atom.
o As a result, the negative charge is no longer entirely localized on the oxygen, but is spread out around the whole ion.
• Since resonance is impossible in alcohols (due to the absence of conjugation of the lone pair of oxygen with a double bond), the hydrogen atom is more
firmly held to the oxygen atom. Hence alcohols are neutral in nature.

Phenolate/Phenoxide
ion
76. • The negative phenoxide ion formed
after the release of hydrogen atom is
more resonance stabilized than
phenol.
• Since there is no possibility for the
delocalization of negative charge in
the alkoxide ion, the latter is not
stable.
• Hence alcohols have no tendency to
form alkoxide ion and hydrogen ion.
• Phenol behaves as a weak acid in
water.
• Phenol can react with bases to form
salts.

77. • The resonating structures I and II of carboxylic acid are non-equivalent and
hence much less stable than the equivalent resonating structures III and IV
for the carboxylate ion.
• The carboxylic acids have a tendency to undergo ionization to form more
stable carboxylate ion and protons.

78. • Now let us compare the acidic strengths of carboxylic acids and phenols.
• The resonating structures of phenoxides are not equivalent.
• Since the resonating structures III and IV of carboxylate anions are equivalent, carboxylate
anion is relatively more resonance stabilized than the phenoxide ion.
• Thus a carboxylic acid is more acidic than a phenol.
• The relative acidity of some common compounds follow the order.
R–COOH > H2CO3 > C6H5OH > HOH > R–OH

79. • Electron attracting substituents tend to disperse the negative charge of the
phenoxide ion, thus stabilize the ion and increase the acidity of phenols.
• Electron releasing substituents tend to intensify the charge, destabilize the
ion, diminish the resonance and decrease its acidity.

• Substitution typically occurs para to the
hydroxy group unless the para position
is blocked, then ortho substitution
occurs.

• Or, looked at another way, the carbonate (CO3
-2) and hydrogen carbonate (HCO3
-
1) ions aren't strong enough bases to take a hydrogen ion from the phenol.
• Unlike the majority of acids, phenol does not give carbon dioxide when you mix
it with one of these.
• This lack of reaction is actually useful.
• You can recognize phenol because:
o It is fairly insoluble in water.
o It reacts with sodium hydroxide solution to give a colorless solution (and therefore must
be acidic).
o It does not react with sodium carbonate or hydrogen carbonate solutions (and so must
be only very weakly acidic).
