Vedclass · Answer

(B) heterocyclic compound is a cyclic compound that has atoms of at least two different elements as members of its ring. $Phenol$ $(C_6H_5OH)$ contains a benzene ring with an external $-OH$ group. $Aniline$ $(C_6H_5NH_2)$ contains a benzene ring with an external $-NH_2$ group. $Furan$ $(C_4H_4O)$ contains an oxygen atom within the five-membered ring. $Thiophene$ $(C_4H_4S)$ contains a sulfur atom within the five-membered ring. Therefore,both $Furan$ and $Thiophene$ are heterocyclic compounds.
