Alcohol: Properties•
hydroxyl group makes the alcohol molecule polar.forms hydrogen bonds to one another and to other compounds.
• Methanol, ethanol, and propanol
miscible in water
hydroxyl group wins out over the short carbonchain.
• Butanol moderately solublethere’s a balance between the
twotrends.
• Alcohols of five or more carbons (Pentanol andhigher)
effectively insoluble in water because of thehydrocarbon chain's dominance.

comparable hydrocarbons and ethers. Can show either acidic or basic
properties at the O-H group.

carboxylic acids.

1. Fermentation
Ethanol for use in alcoholic beverages, andthe vast majority of ethanol for use as fuel, isproduced by fermentation. When certain
species of yeast, most importantly,Saccharomyces cerevisiae, metabolize sugar in the absence of oxygen, they produceethanol and carbon dioxide. The chemical
equation below summarizes the conversion:

• Ethanol antiseptic to disinfect theskin before injections are given, often
along with iodine.• Ethanol-based soaps are becoming
common in restaurants and areconvenient because they do notrequire drying due to the volatility of the compound.

The general structure foran ether
Ether is a class of organic compounds
which contain an ether group — an oxygenatom connected to two (substituted) alkylor aryl groups — of general formula R–O–R'.

Ethers: Properties
• Simple ethers are volatile, flammableliquids.
• Slightly soluble (low MW) in water
• Dipolar, so…
- tend to be higher boiling thanhydrocarbons of the same mass.
- good at dissolving many organiccompounds.
• Low reactivity towards many reagentsmakes them good solvents for chemical
reactions.

• Cyclic ethers such as tetrahydrofuranand 1,4-dioxane are totally miscible
in water because of the moreexposed oxygen atom for hydrogenbonding as compared to aliphaticethers.

The Williamson Synthesis of Ethers
- prepare unsymmetrical ethers where the alkyl groupsare not the same.- The reaction involves an SN2 reaction in which analkoxide ion replaces a halogen,sulfonyl, or sulfate
group. Usually, alkyl halides are used.- The alkoxide can be prepared by the reaction of thecorresponding alcohol with an active metal such asmetallic Sodium or the use of a metal hydride like NaH
acting upon the alcohol. The resulting alkoxide salt isthen reacted with the alkyl halide (sulfonate or sulfate)to produce the ether in an SN2 reaction. See Fig 3 below)

MECHANISM FOR ALCOHOLCONDENSATION TO GIVE AN ETHER
Step 1: n acid/base reaction. Proton donation of
the alcoholic oxygen to make a better leaving group. This step is very fast andreversible. The lone pairs on the oxygenmake it a Lewis base.
Step 2: The O of the second alcohol moleculefunctions as the nucleophile and attacks todisplace the good leaving group, a neutralwater molecule, by cleaving the C-O bond.This creates an oxonium ion intermediate.
Step 3: nother acid / base reaction. The proton is
removed by a suitable base (here a water molecule, ROH is another alternative) togive the ether product.

Ethers: Uses
• Diethyl ether
is a common laboratory solvent.
has a high cetane number of 85 - 96and is used as a starting fluid for dieseland gasoline engines because of its
high volatility and low autoignitiontemperature.

Anesthetic use
• Modern anesthetic agents, such as methylpropyl ether (Neothyl) andmethoxyflurane (Penthrane) reduce side
effects such as postanesthetic nausea andvomiting.

Recreational use
• Ether, mixed with ethanol, was marketedin the 19th century as a cure-all andrecreational drug, during one of Western
society's temperance movements.• At the time, it was considered improper for
women to consume alcoholic beverages atsocial functions, and sometimes ether-containing drugs would be consumedinstead
• Due to its immiscibility with water and thefact that non-polar organic compounds arehighly soluble in it, ether is also used in
the production of freebase cocaine.

Amines are organic compounds andfunctional groups that contain a
basic nitrogen atom with a lone pair.Amines are derivatives of ammonia,wherein one or more hydrogenatoms are replaced by organicsubstituents such as alkyl and aryl

Amines: Properties
• The boiling point of amines is higher thanthose of the corresponding phosphines,but generally lower than those of the
corresponding alcohols.• Methyl-, dimethyl-, trimethyl-, and
ethylamine are gases under standardconditions, whereas diethylamine and
triethylamine are liquids. Most othercommon alkyl amines are liquids; high-molecular-weight amines are, of course,solids.

•
Gaseous amines possess a characteristicammonia smell, liquid amines have adistinctive "fishy" smell.
• Most aliphatic amines display some solubilityin water, reflecting their ability to form
hydrogen bonds. Solubility decreases with theincrease in the number of carbon atoms,especially when the carbon atom number isgreater than 6.
• Aliphatic amines display significant solubilityin organic solvents, especially polar organicsolvents. Primary amines react with ketonessuch as acetone, and most amines areincompatible with chloroform and carbontetrachloride.

1. Hofmann's method
This reaction takes place in a sealed tube at a temperature of about
100 C and a mixture of primary, secondary and tertiary amines is
obtained.
CH3I + NH3 CH3NH2 + HI
CH3NH2 + CH3I ( CH3)2NH+ HI
(CH3)2NH+ CH3I ( CH3)3N+ HI(CH3)3N + CH3I (CH3)4NI-
If excess of alcoholic ammonia is used in the reaction, primary amine is the
main product and if alkyl halide is used in excess, tertiary amine is the main
product.
2. From alcohol
A mixture of primary, secondary and tertiary amines is obtained when a
mixture of alcohol vapour and ammonia is passed over heated Alumunia

Amines: Uses
Dyes
• Primary aromatic amines are used as astarting material for the manufacture of azo
dyes. It reacts with nitric(III) acid to formdiazonium salt, which can undergo couplingreaction to form azo compound. As azo-compounds are highly coloured, they arewidely used in dyeing industries, such as:
• Methyl orange• Direct brown 138
• Sunset yellow FCF
• Ponceau

Drugs
• Chlorpheniramine antihistamine
that helps to relieve allergic disordersdue to cold, hay fever, itchy skin,insect bites and stings.
• Chlorpromazine tranquillizer thatsedates without inducing sleep. It isused to relieve anxiety, excitement,
restlessness or even mental disorder.
