Ether.

-O-) of the oxygen atoms in the molecule are connected to two hydrocarbon-based carbon
compounds
ethers. Ether is a C-O-C structure
general
organic compounds. The two hydrocarbons in the ether molecule connected to the oxygen atom are the same as the monoether, and the different are called mixed ethers. Simple ether naming pairs, first write the name of the hydrocarbon base, plus the word "ether", and often omitted the hydrocarbon-based "base" word. The word "two" preceding the name is omitted when naming a single ether. When naming a mixed ether, place the smaller hydrocarbon base in front of the
, and
the alkyl in front of the alkyl. Ether is different from alcohol and phenol, there is no active hydroxyl in molecular structure, so the properties are relatively stable. Oxygen atoms in the molecular structure of ethers have unsharing electron pairs, so ethers can act with strong inorridic acids to form compounds similar to ammonium salts, which are called salts. Salt weakens the carbon-oxygen bond (C-O) of the ether and breaks easily, resulting in hydrocarbon oxygen base being replaced by other atoms or clusters. Low-grade ethers (e.g. ethers, etc.) are gradually oxidized into organic peroxides when stored in long-term contact with air. This peroxide is prone to explosion when it is heated.
