Phenolmusanganiswa une mhete yebenzene neboka rehydroxyl.Mumakemikari, madoro anotsanangurwa semisanganiswa ine hydroxyl boka uye hydrocarbon chain.Nokudaro, zvichibva pane tsanangudzo iyi, phenol haisi doro.

Zvisinei, kana tikatarisa chimiro che phenol, tinogona kuona kuti ine hydroxyl boka.Izvi zvinoreva kuti phenol ine mamwe maitiro edoro.Nekudaro, chimiro che phenol chakasiyana nechimiro chezvimwe zvinwiwa nekuti chine ring ye benzene.Iyi mhete ye benzene inopa phenol hunhu hwayo hwakasiyana nehunhu hwakasiyana nehwedoro.

Saka, zvichienderana nemaitiro ephenol uye doro, tinogona kutaura kuti phenol haisi doro.Zvisinei, kana tikangotarisa chokwadi chokuti phenol ine boka re hydroxyl, saka rine mamwe maitiro edoro.Saka, mhinduro kumubvunzo "Ko phenol doro?"haigoni kungova hongu kana kwete.Zvinoenderana nemamiriro ezvinhu uye tsanangudzo yedoro yatiri kushandisa.
