Classification ntawm cawv

Raws li hom carbon atom txuas nrog pawg hydroxyl, nws tuaj yeem muab faib ua thawj cawv, cawv thib ob thiab tertiary cawv.
Raws li hom hydrocarbon pawg txuam nrog hydroxyl pawg, nws tuaj yeem muab faib ua fatty alcohols, alicyclic alcohols thiab aromatic alcohols. Fatty alcohols muab faib ua cov dej cawv saturated thiab unsaturated cawv raws li seb pawg hydrocarbon puas muaj cov ntawv cog lus tsis txaus ntseeg.
Raws li qhov sib txawv ntawm cov hydroxyl pawg muaj nyob rau hauv molecule, nws tuaj yeem muab faib ua ib qho cawv, ob qho cawv thiab peb cawv. Cov dej cawv uas muaj ob lossis ntau pawg hydroxyl yog sib sau ua ke hu ua polyols.
Cawv nrog hydroxyl pawg txuas nrog ob-bonded carbon yog hu ua enols, uas feem ntau tsis ruaj khov hauv cov qauv thiab yooj yim isomerized rau hauv cov khoom sib txuas carbonyl ruaj khov.
