common functional groups

I have a really old chart for you Charlie that may help, firstly here's a strong list of them:



Next, look at this:







These molecular varieties fall into groups such as saturated Hydrocarbons with single H-C bonds (Alkanes), double bonds (Alkenes), and triple bonds (Alyknes); ring structures are represented by Aromatic Hydrocarbons. Isomers are organic molecules with the same chemical formula but different atomic arrangements. Among the derivative organic molecules (Hydrocarbons with parts replaced by functional groups) are Alchohols (--OH functional group), Ether (--O--), Aldehyde (--CHO), Ketone (--CO--), and Carboxylic Acid (--CO3H).

Let me know if you need further detail and I will explain it further

Thank you so much Duddy... Very helpful!

Ok Duddy, I'm real confused trying to figure this out...

I'm trying to figure out what group the aromatic compound group in acetaminophen is and the breakdown of the rest of the groups??
 

You have a hydroxyl group: -OH (left part, alcohol linkage), it has an amide linkage. The amide linkage has H-N (single bond) and a CO double bond joined to the nitrogen (N) atom.

I've attached a chart I usually use

Acetaminophen is basically a C6 ring with an hydroxyl group dangling from one end and an ethanamide group dangling off the other. The easiest way to figure out the answers to these sorts of questions is to look at the structure and to look at the IUPAC name.

For acetaminophen the IUPAC name is "N-(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethanamide".

Thanx guys!
