A molecule of aniline nucleophilically attacks potassium persulfate under basic conditions to yield a product containing this functional group in the Boyland-Sims reaction. This functional group will react with hexamine to yield ortho and para formylated products in the Duff reaction. In nucleotide synthesis, di-methoxy-trityl acts as a protecting group for this functional group. An aromatic molecule of this type is heated with CO2 followed by treatment with sulfuric acid to give salicylic acid 
A molecule of aniline nucleophilically attacks potassium persulfate under basic conditions to yield a product containing this functional group in the Boyland-Sims reaction. This functional group will react with hexamine to yield ortho and para formylated products in the Duff reaction. In nucleotide synthesis, di-methoxy-trityl acts as a protecting group for this functional group. An aromatic molecule of this type is heated with CO2 followed by treatment with sulfuric acid to give salicylic acid in the Kolbe process. This functional group adds across double bonds in an (*) anti-Markov-nikov fashion in the presence of B-H-3 and basic H-2-O-2. Molecules of this type are popular solvents for S-N-one reactions, and this functional group is present in N-M-R spectra as a low broad singlet that disappears upon the addition of heavy water. For 10 points, name this class of molecules with p-K-a's around 16, the simplest one of which is methanol.
