Not necessarily. Alcohols have -OH as functional group.
Functional groups are responsible for chemical reactions of molecules.
It is the amino functional group amine
Functional group is a part of an organic molecule which takes a part in chemical reaction for example in alcohols functional group is -OH , in carboxylic acids is -COOH and so on, but formaldehyde CH2O is a molecule and it is completely a functional group.
Functional group of ethanol is -OH.
The functional group of citral is the aldehyde (alkanal) group. It has the structure -CHO
n.An atom or group of atoms, such as a carboxyl group, that replaces hydrogen in an organic compound and that defines the structure of a family of compounds and determines the properties of the family.Read more: functional-group
From its structure, we can see that vanillin does not have a ketone functional group, but it has an aldehyde. It also has a phenol and ether functional group. For that reason, I wouldn't categorize is as just an aldehyde.
Not necessarily. Alcohols have -OH as functional group.
alkane haloalkane amide alcohol ketone not so much a functional group but it does contain ring structures like benzene
The functional group is the NH2. It is an amino functional group.
The amino functional group.
It is the amino functional group amine
Glucose is a type of simple sugar. There are two functional groups in glucose. The functional groups are aldehyde and hydroxyl.
An application is to discover information about the chemical structure of a compound that you are analyzing. You could tell if there are double bonds, triple bonds, an alchohol group or other functional groups by seeing characteristic absorbances of infra red light at a given wave length (or wave number). The stuff you are analyzing should be pure- otherwise you won't be able to tell what component has what functional group. There are tables that summarize what functional group absorbs at what wavelength. There are also NIST references of the spectra for many different molecules (compounds). With lots of comparison and practice, you could determine the chemical structure of an unknown compound from the instrumental ouput.
