Key Points: Structures of Functional Groups of Alcohols, Phenols and Ethers

  • Alcohols: O atom is sp³ hybridised; two bond pairs + two lone pairs; bent structure.
  • Phenols: –OH directly on benzene ring; lone pair on O delocalised into ring → more acidic than alcohols.
  • Ethers: O is sp³ hybridised. Two O–C sigma bonds + two lone pairs. Structure similar to water molecule. Bent/angular shape.
