The aim of the document is to identify the functional group in an organic compound labeled F3. The tests conducted indicate the presence of unsaturation and a phenolic -OH group, confirmed by observations such as decoloration of bromine water and the appearance of violet and red colorations in various tests. The final conclusion is that the sample contains a phenolic -OH group.

Q3. Aim: To identify the functional group present in the given organic compound.
Sample No.= F3
Physical Properties: Colour: light brown State: Liquid Odour: Characteristic odour. Solubility: partially soluble Action on Litmus solution: Blue litmus to red.
Sl.no. Experiment Observation Inference
1. Test for Unsaturation: 1 mL of org. Decolouration of orange-red colour of Unsaturation sample is dissolved in 2 mL of CCl4 in a bromine water. present. test tube and 2% solution of bromine in CCl4 is added. 2. Ferric Chloride test: 2 mL of org.sample Appearance of violet colour. Phenolic -OH is taken in a test tube and then 1 mL of FeCl3 + 6C6H5OH [Fe(OC6H5)6]3- +3HCl group present. neutral ferric chloride solution is added Violet complex to it. 3. Liebermann’s Test: To 1 mL of organic Appearance of red colouration. Phenolic -OH sample 1-2 crystals of sodium nitrite is group present added. The mixture is heated for 30 sec and confirmed. and cooled. Conc. H2SO4 is added followed by water and shaken. To the above solution excess of NaOH is Appearance of blue or green colour. added.
Result: The given sample F3 contains Phenolic -OH group.
