What Is Covered in Topics 16 & 32 Hydroxy Compounds?

Hydroxy compounds form two interconnected topics in the Cambridge AS & A Level Chemistry 9701 syllabus:

Topic 16 (AS Level) covers the core chemistry of alcohols[reference:0]. Topic 32 (A Level) extends this to include the chemistry of phenols[reference:1]. This comprehensive unit plan covers all essential concepts including:

Topic 16: Hydroxy Compounds (AS Level)[reference:2]

  • Classification of Alcohols – Understanding the classification of alcohols as primary (1°), secondary (2°), and tertiary (3°) based on the number of carbon groups attached to the carbon bearing the hydroxyl group[reference:3][reference:4]. Methanol is handled separately[reference:5].
  • Preparation of Alcohols – Recalling six synthesis routes[reference:6][reference:7]:
    • Hydration of alkenes (steam, H₃PO₄ catalyst)[reference:8]
    • Cold dilute KMnO₄ on alkenes → diols[reference:9]
    • Substitution of halogenoalkanes (NaOH, aqueous, heat)[reference:10]
    • Reduction of aldehydes/ketones (NaBH₄ or LiAlH₄)[reference:11]
    • Reduction of carboxylic acids (LiAlH₄ only)[reference:12]
    • Hydrolysis of esters[reference:13]
  • Physical Properties – Understanding solubility, boiling points, and hydrogen bonding[reference:14].
  • Reactions of Alcohols – Describing[reference:15]:
    • Combustion
    • Reaction with sodium → sodium alkoxide + H₂[reference:16]
    • Substitution to halogenoalkanes (with HX, PCl₃, PCl₅, SOCl₂)[reference:17]
    • Oxidation (K₂Cr₂O₇/H₂SO₄, orange → green)[reference:18]: 1° → aldehyde (distil) → carboxylic acid (reflux); 2° → ketone; 3° → no reaction[reference:19][reference:20]
    • Dehydration (hot conc H₂SO₄ or Al₂O₃) → alkene[reference:21][reference:22]
    • Esterification – With carboxylic acid (conc H₂SO₄, reversible equilibrium) OR with acyl chloride (fast, irreversible, room temperature)[reference:23][reference:24]
  • Triiodomethane (Iodoform) Test – Deduce the presence of a CH₃CH(OH)– group from a pale-yellow precipitate of CHI₃[reference:25][reference:26].
  • Acidity of Alcohols – Explaining that alcohols are weaker acids than water because alkyl groups have a positive inductive (+I) effect that destabilises the alkoxide ion[reference:27][reference:28]. Order of acidity: carboxylic acid > phenol > water > alcohol[reference:29].

Topic 32: Hydroxy Compounds (A Level)[reference:30]

  • Phenol Recognition – Understanding that phenol has a hydroxyl group bonded directly to an aromatic carbon[reference:31].
  • Preparation of Phenol – Two-stage preparation[reference:32]:
    • Phenylamine + nitrous acid (NaNO₂ + dilute acid, < 10°C) → benzenediazonium salt[reference:33]
    • Warming diazonium salt with water → phenol + N₂[reference:34]
  • Acidity of Phenol – Phenol is a weak acid – stronger than alcohols but weaker than carboxylic acids[reference:35]. The phenoxide ion is stabilised by delocalisation into the benzene ring[reference:36]. Phenol reacts with Na and NaOH but does NOT react with carbonates (distinguishes from carboxylic acids)[reference:37].
  • Reaction with Bromine Water – The –OH group activates the ring, so phenol reacts with bromine water at room temperature without a catalyst, decolourising orange bromine water[reference:38].
  • Ring Activation and Directing Effects – Understanding how the –OH group activates the benzene ring and directs electrophilic substitution[reference:39].
  • Azo Coupling – Phenoxide couples with diazonium salts to form intensely coloured azo compounds with a nitrogen-nitrogen linkage[reference:40].
