Tests for unsaturation (bromine water, Baeyer), alcohols (Lucas, ceric ammonium nitrate), phenols (FeCl₃), aldehydes and ketones (2,4-DNP, Tollens, Fehling), carboxylic acids (NaHCO₃) and amines (carbylamine, Hinsberg): test, observation and inference, each with an example structure.

## What the template shows

- Organic functional-group tests
- Test · observation · inference, with an example compound that gives the positive result
- Group / example
- Test and reagent
- Observation (positive)
- Your result
- C=C unsaturation: cyclohexene
- Bromine water (or Br₂ in CH₂Cl₂), shake
- red-brown colour discharged at once
- C=C or C≡C present (addition of Br₂)
- Baeyer’s test: cold, dilute alkaline KMnO₄
- pink-purple colour discharged; brown ppt of MnO₂
- C=C present (oxidised to a diol)
- Alcohol: ethanol
- Ceric ammonium nitrate reagent
- yellow solution turns pink-red
- alcoholic –OH present
- Alcohol (1°/2°/3°): tert-butanol
- Lucas test: anhydrous ZnCl₂ in conc. HCl, room temp.
- cloudiness at once: 3°; in about 5 min: 2°; none at room temp.: 1°
- class of alcohol (rate of R–Cl formation)
- Phenol: phenol
- Neutral FeCl₃ solution
- violet colour

## Frequently asked questions

### Is the Functional-group tests template free?

You can preview the Functional-group tests template here and open and edit it in MolDraw for free. Downloading or exporting it is part of MolDraw Pro, together with the other premium templates.

### Can I edit the Functional-group tests template?

Yes. It opens as an ordinary MolDraw drawing, so every structure, arrow, label and colour can be changed, and you can add your own content around it.

### Is the chemistry checked?

Every structure is checked with RDKit and every curly arrow passes MolDraw’s electron-flow audit. The sources used are listed on this page.

### Are the teaching lab sheets printable?

Yes. Open one in MolDraw, add your school or course name and export it as PDF to print.
