1.13 Ethers¶

Ethers are compounds having two alkyl or aryl groups bonded to an oxygen atom, as in the formula R1–O–R2. The ether functional group does not have a characteristic IUPAC nomenclature suffix, so it is necessary to designate it as a substituent. To do so the common alkoxy substituents are given names derived from their alkyl component (below):

Alkyl Group CH₃^- Methyl, Alkoxy Group: CH₃O^- Methoxy CH₃CH₂^- Ethyl, Alkoxy Group: CH₃CH₂O^- Ethoxy (CH3)2CH- Isopropyl, Alkoxy Group: (CH3)2CHO- Isopropoxy (CH3)3C- tert-Butyl, Alkoxy Group; (CH3)3CO- tert-Butoxy C₆H₅^- Phenyl, Alkoxy Group: C₆H₅O^- Phenoxy Ethers can be named in two ways: 1. Name each of the two carbon groups as a separate word followed by a space and the word ether. 2. The -OR group can also be named as a substituent using the group name, e.g. Methoxy CH₃-CH₂-O-CH₃ may be called 'ethyl methyl ether' or 'methoxyethane'. CH₃CH₂OCH₂CH₃, diethyl ether, may be called just 'ether' Ethers 2,2-dichlorodiethyl ether, dichloroether, dichlorodiethyl ether, Toxic by all routes, Not permitted in schools source

Anisole, CH₃OC₆H₅, methyoxybenzene, smells like anise seed, skin irritant, Harmful if ingested. source
