These compounds can be formed by adding an organomagnesium halide to a ketone or an aldehyde in the Grignard reaction, and the secondary variety of these compounds is oxidized to ketones in the Jones oxidation.
These compounds can be formed by adding an organomagnesium halide to a ketone or an aldehyde in the Grignard reaction, and the secondary variety of these compounds is oxidized to ketones in the Jones oxidation. These compounds form (*)esters when combined with carboxylic acids in Fischer esterification, and aromatic examples of these compounds are known as phenols. The "wood" variety of these compounds is the simplest one and has formula CH3OH, and ethanol, another of these compounds, is a product of the fermentation of sugars. Defined by the presence of hydroxyl groups, for 10 points, identify this sometimes-intoxicating class of organic compounds.
