Organic compounds containing oxygen atoms

Certain classes of organic compounds containing oxygen atoms, such as aldehydes and ethers, may react with oxygen to form peroxy derivatives ... [Pg.678]

Many organic compounds contain oxygen atoms bonded to alkyl groups. The major classes of oxygen-containing compounds are alcohols, ethers, ketones, aldehydes, carboxylic acids, and acid derivatives. We will cover their nomenclature in greater detail in upcoming chapters. [Pg.76]

Undissociated acids form adduct complexes with organic compounds, containing oxygen donor atoms. If the adducts formed are soluble in... [Pg.627]

Alcohols, like most organic compounds containing oxygen or nitrogen, cire soluble in concentrated sulfuric acid because the acid protonates the oxygen atom, as illustrated in Figure 3-5. [Pg.34]

Organic peroxides Any organic compound containing oxygen (O) in the bivalent -O-O- structure and that may be considered a derivative of hydrogen peroxide, where one or more of the hydrogen atoms have been replaced by organic radicals. [Pg.406]

If an organic compound contains an atom with an unshared electron pair, it is a potential base. We saw in Section 3.5C that compounds with an unshared electron pair on a nitrogen atom (i.e., amines) act as bases. Let us now consider several examples in which organic compounds having an unshared electron pair on an oxygen atom act in the same way. [Pg.130]

There are a total of eighteen different hydrocarbon series, of which the most common constituents of crude oil have been presented - the alkanes, cycloalkanes, and the arenes. The more recent classifications of hydrocarbons are based on a division of the hydrocarbons in three main groups alkanes, naphthanes and aromatics, along with the organic compounds containing the non-hydrocarbon atoms of sulphur, nitrogen and oxygen.
