Organic Analysis

The document outlines a series of tests conducted to identify functional groups in an organic compound, including tests for unsaturation, carbonyl, carboxylic, phenolic, and amino groups. Each test is accompanied by observations and inferences regarding the presence of specific functional groups. The final result indicates that the organic compound is saturated.
