In chemistry, an alcohol (from Arabic al-kuḥl 'the kohl'), [2] is a type of organic compound that carries at least one hydroxyl (−OH) functional group bound to a saturated carbon atom. [3] [4] Alcohols range from the simple, like methanol and ethanol, to complex, like sugars and cholesterol. The presence of an OH group strongly modifies the ...

In organic chemistry, the aromatic alcohols or aryl-alcohols are a class of chemical compounds containing a hydroxyl group (−O H) bonded indirectly to an aromatic hydrocarbon group, [1] in contrast to the phenols, where the hydroxyl group is bonded directly to an aromatic carbon atom. [2] Aromatic alcohols are produced by the yeast Candida ...
Ethanol (also called ethyl alcohol, grain alcohol, drinking alcohol, or simply alcohol) is an organic compound with the chemical formula CH 3 CH 2 OH. It is an alcohol, with its formula also written as C 2 H 5 OH, C 2 H 6 O or EtOH, where Et stands for ethyl. Ethanol is a volatile, flammable, colorless liquid with a characteristic wine-like ...

Geminal diols are a subclass of the diols, which in turn are a special class of alcohols. Most of the geminal diols are considered unstable. The simplest geminal diol is methanediol CH 4 O 2 or H 2 C(OH) 2. Other examples are: dihydroxymalonic acid (HOOC) 2 C(OH) 2; decahydroxycyclopentane (C(OH) 2) 5; chloral hydrate (Cl 3 C)HC(OH) 2.
