Functional Groups

Groups of atoms that give the molecule its function when attached
Hydroxyl (O-H)

Forms an alcohol
Carbonyl (C=O)
- Aldehyde: bonded on end; terminal carbonyl
- Ketone: bonded in middle; non-terminal carbonyl
Carboxylic Acid (O=C-OH)

Carbonyl + Alcohol
Amines (NH3/ NH2)

If N is present = amines
Sulfhydryl (S-H)

If S is present= Sulfhydryl
Hyrdrocarbons (H + C)

C(n) + H (2nt2)
Alkane, Alkene, Alkyne
- Alkane - (1 bond)
- Alkene = (2 bonds)
- Alkyne -= (3 bonds)
