Concept Introduction:
In chemistry a ketonic functional group refers to the structure in which the structure has a group RC(=O) R' where R and R' can be same or different carbon containing groups.The term constitutional isomers refer to compounds having the same molecular formula but they differ in the connectivity of the atoms.
(c)
Interpretation:
The structure of the constitutional isomer of 2-heptanone which contains a hydroxyl group is to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
The term alcohol refers to the organic compounds which have a hydroxyl group attached directly to the carbon in the hydrocarbon chain.
The term constitutional isomers refer to compounds having the same molecular formula but they differ in the connectivity of the atoms.
