Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The structural formula given represents a thioether, characterized by a sulfur atom (S) bonded to two alkyl or aryl groups, without any additional functional groups like hydroxyl (-OH) for diols or sulfhydryl (-SH) for thiols. Disulfides have a -S-S- linkage, which is not present in the given structure.
