Naming Alcohols • A carbon compound that contain -OH (hydroxyl) group • In IUPAC name, the -e in alkane name is replaced with -ol. CH4 methane CH3OH methanol (methyl alcohol) CH3CH3 ethane CH3CH2OH ethanol (ethyl alcohol)
Alcohols • How is the -OH group different from the hydroxide ion? -OH group forms covalent bond with the carbon Hydroxide ion forms ionic bond with a metal
Ethanol CH3CH2OH • Acts as a depressant • Kills or disables more people than any other drug • 12-15 mg/dL ethanol metabolized by a social drinkers in one hour • 30 mg/dL ethanol metabolized by an alcoholic in one hour.
Alcohol in Some Products % Ethanol Product 50% Whiskey, rum, brandy 40% Flavoring extracts 15-25% Listerine, Nyquil, Scope 12% Wine, Dristan, Cepacol 3-9% Beer, Lavoris
More Names of Alcohols • IUPAC names for longer chains number the chain from the end nearest the -OH group. CH3CH2CH2OH1-propanol OH CH3CHCH32-propanol CH3 OH CH3CHCH2CH2CHCH35-methyl-2-hexanol
Some Typical Alcohols OH “rubbing alcohol” CH3CHCH3 2-propanol (isopropyl alcohol) antifreeze HO-CH2-CH2-OH 1,2-ethanediol (ethylene glycol) OH glycerol HO-CH2-CH-CH2OH Anti-freeze
Classification of Alcohols Primary (1º) Secondary (2º ) Tertiary (3º) H CH3CH3 CH3-C-OH CH3-C-OH CH3-C-OH H H CH3 1 C 2 C 3 C attached attached attached to C-OH to C-OH to C-OH

Properties of Alcohols • Ethyl alcohol (ethanol) used in the intoxicating beverages; an important industrial solvent • Many aliphatic alcohols used in laboratories, clinics, and industry • Isopropyl alcohol (2-propanol) is rubbing alcohol; used as antiseptic, and a base for perfume, creams, lotions, and other cosmetics
Properties of Alcohols • Glycerol (1,2,3-propanetriol) - used as a moistening agent in cosmetics, foods, and drugs; also a component of fats and oils
Learning Check Name the following alcohols: A. OH CH3CHCHCH2CH3 CH3 OH B.
Solution Name the following alcohols: A. OH 3-methyl-2-pentanol CH3CHCHCH2CH3 CH3 OH B. cyclobutanol
Properties of Alcohols • Much like water, alcohols are capable of hydrogen bonding between molecules • this means they will boil at a higher temp. than alkanes and halocarbons with a comparable number of atoms
Properties of Alcohols • Alcohols of up to 4 carbons are soluble in water in all proportions; more than 4 carbons are usually less soluble, because…?
Properties of Alcohols • Denatured alcohol- means it has been made poisonous by the addition of other chemicals, often methyl alcohol (methanol, or wood alcohol). As little as 10 mL of methanol has been known to cause permanent blindness, and 30 ml has resulted in death!!!
Reactions of Alcohols Combustion CH3OH + 2O2 CO2 + 2H2O + Heat Dehydration H OH H+, heat H-C-C-H H-C=C-H + H2O H H H H alcohol alkene
Oxidation • Is a gain of oxygen (O) or • A loss of hydrogen (H)
Oxidationof Alcohols 1°alcohols are oxidized to aldehydes and 2° alcohols are oxidized to ketones Alcohols 1° 2° aldehydesketones
Oxidation of Alcohols [O] Primary alcohol aldehyde OH O [O] CH3-C-H CH3-C-H H Ethanol Ethanal (ethyl alcohol) (acetaldehyde)
Oxidation of Alcohols [O] Secondary alcohol ketone OH O [O] CH3-C-CH3 CH3-C-CH3 2-Propanol 2-propanone (isopropyl alcohol) (dimethyl ketone, “acetone”)
Oxidation of Alcohols [O] Tertiary alcohols no reaction OH [O] CH3-C-CH3 no product CH3 no H on the C-OH to oxidize 2-Methyl-2-propanol
Oxidation of Ethanol in the Body • Enzymes in the liver oxidize ethanol • Aldehyde product impairs coordination • Blood alcohol over 0.4% can be fatal. O O [O] [O] CH3CH2OH CH3CH CH3COH 2CO2 + H2O ethyl alcohol acetaldehyde acetic acid
Learning Check Select the product for the oxidation of CH3CH2CH2OH: O 1) CH3CH=CH2 2) CO2 + H2O3) CH3CH2CH
Solution Select the product for the oxidation of CH3CH2CH2OH: O [O] 3) CH3CH2CH
Reduction • Is a loss of oxygen (O) or • gain of hydrogen (H)
Reduction Aldehydes are reduced to 1° alcohols and ketones are reduced to 2° alcohols Alcohols 1° 2° aldehydes ketones
Phenols • IUPAC name for benzene with a hydroxyl group • Many are used as antiseptics and disinfectants
Ethers • Contain an -O- between two carbon groups • Simple ethers named from -yl names of the attached groups and adding ether. CH3-O-CH3 dimethyl ether CH3-O-CH2CH3 ethyl methyl ether
Ethers as Anesthetics • Anesthetics inhibit pain signals to the brain • CH3CH2-O-CH2CH3 used for over a century; commonly called just ether (Morton, 1846) • Causes nausea and is highly flammable • 1960s developed nonflammable anesthetics Cl F F Cl F H H-C-C-O-C-H H-C-C-O-C-H F F F H F H Ethane(enflurane) Penthrane
MTBE • Methyl tert-butyl ether CH3 CH3-O-C-CH3 CH3 • Second in production of organic chemicals • Additive to improve gasoline performance • Use in question with discovery of contaminated water supplies
