Alcohols
Learning outcomes - after studying this topic, you should be able to:
- identify and name simple alcohols and phenols
- explain why phenols are more acidic than alcohols
- predict the products of oxidation of an alcohol and give the reagents required to perform this reaction
- predict the products of the elimination of alcohols, using Zaitsev's rule, and give the reagents required to perform this reaction
