Yes, paracetamol (acetaminophen) contains a phenol group in its chemical structure. This phenol group is responsible for its analgesic and antipyretic properties.
Some common drugs that contain an aromatic phenol group include aspirin, acetaminophen (paracetamol), ibuprofen, and diclofenac. These drugs are widely used as analgesics and anti-inflammatory agents.
Acetazolamide contains a weakly acidic sulphonamide group, SO2NH2 as well as what is considered a peptide link, CONH but is named as an amide functional group. These groups are joined to a cyclic 5-membered ring, containing 2 Nitrogens doubly bonded to carbons in the ring (azomethine?) and a Sulfur member.
Yes, paracetamol is the medical name for N-(4-hydroxyphenyl)acetamide, so it does contain an amide group.
Some examples of phenols include phenol itself (hydroxybenzene), cresol, guaiacol, and catechol. These compounds contain a hydroxyl group attached to a benzene ring.
The phenyl group in phenol has no net charge as it is a neutral group. The charge on the phenol molecule is -1 due to the negatively charged oxygen atom present in the hydroxyl group.
Some common drugs that contain an aromatic phenol group include aspirin, acetaminophen (paracetamol), ibuprofen, and diclofenac. These drugs are widely used as analgesics and anti-inflammatory agents.
The functional groups in paracetamol include an amide group (-NH-CO-), a phenol group (-OH), and an aromatic ring system.

No. An OH group is not attached to the benzene ring.

Paracetamol can come with or without caffeine in it. Sometimes it can contain codeine. I believe over the counter paracetamol comes without caffeine.
Does paravetamol contain codine
The phenyl group in phenol has no net charge as it is a neutral group. The charge on the phenol molecule is -1 due to the negatively charged oxygen atom present in the hydroxyl group.
Paracetamol is one of the most common drugs used in the world, and is manufactured in huge quantities. The starting material for the commercial manufacture of paracetamol is phenol, which is nitrated to give a mixture of the ortho and para-nitrotoluene. The o-isomer is removed by steam distillation, and the p-nitro group reduced to a p-amino group. This is then acetylated to give paracetamol.
There are a number of combinations of Orphenadrine with co drug. Usually Paracetamol,asprin and or with caffeine. The usual dose of orphenadrine is 60mg per dose usually combined with Paracetamol. See NORGESIC.
you can say as it contain Phenol ring that is undergoes acetylation process to form -OCOCH3
