The Pharisees and Sadducees were both Jewish religious groups in ancient Israel, but they held different beliefs and interpretations of the Torah.

John 3:1 - There was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. [NKJV]That verse pretty much says it. Nicodemus might even have been a member of the Sanhedrin (implied by the fact that he was a "ruler"), yet he wanted to give Jesus an honest hearing. The Pharisees as a group wanted nothing but to discredit and silence Christ.Nicodemus had to meet Jesus secretly or risk losing all status among his Jewish brethren.

The name John the Baptist came from St. John the Baptist who preached the coming of Jesus Christ and also baptised Him. You can see the brief explanation at the following link.
Matthew 3:7 - But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to his baptism, he said to them, "Brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the wrath to come?"[NKJV]Notice the wording: "coming to his baptism" - not "coming to be baptized."The Pharisees and Sadducees were not willing to be baptized by John, they only came to "see what was going on," as it were. This is why he refers to them as a "brood of vipers," and warns them to "bear fruits worthy of repentance," in Matt. 3:8.That the Pharisees and Sadducees did not submit to John's baptism is made clear later in Matthew's gospel when Jesus asks the Jewish leaders, "The baptism of John - where was it from? From heaven or from men?" And they reasoned among themselves, saying, "If we say, 'From heaven,' He will say to us, 'Why then did you not believe him?' But if we say, 'From men,' we fear the multitude, for all count John as a prophet." (Matthew 21:25, 26)Let's not forget this passage... [NIV]Luke 3:7,8: John said to the crowds coming out to be baptized by him, "You brood of vipers! , "You brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the coming wrath? 8Produce fruit in keeping with repentance. And do not begin to say to yourselves, 'We have Abraham as our father.' For I tell you that out of these stones God can raise up children for Abraham.[In this passage it is more ambiguous and it could be argued that the Pharisees wanted to be get baptised. Even if they did want to it is doubtful John would have baptised them because they would not repent. This shows that it is not biological children of Abraham that should be baptised.Romans 4:6-8 states "it is not the natural children who are God's children, but it is the children of the promise who are regarded as Abraham's offspring."
