The term ‘Nomenclature’ means the method of naming a particular field of study or community. Hence, it is a set of terms and names.

Alcohol

They are formed when a saturated carbon atom is bonded to a -OH group (hydroxyl).

Monohydric Alcohols

They contain one -OH group. Example: Methanol CH3OH.

Dihydric Alcohols

They contain two -OH groups. Example: Ethylene glycol (CH₂OH)₂

Trihydric Alcohols

They contain three -OH groups. Example: Glycerol HOCH2 CHOH CH2OH.

Phenol

They are formed when a hydrogen atom in a benzene molecule is replaced by the -OH group.

Depending on the presence of the number of hydroxyl groups, phenols are classified into three types:

Monohydric Phenols

They contain one hydroxyl (-OH) group.

Dihydric Phenols

They contain two hydroxyl (-OH) groups.

Trihydric Phenols

They contain three hydroxyl (-OH) groups.

The structure of each type of Phenol is shown below:

Ether

It can be classified into two types.

The attached alkyl or aryl groups are the same. Ex: CH3OCH3.

Symmetrical Ether

The attached alkyl or aryl groups are not the same. Ex: CH3OC2H5

Unsymmetrical Ether
