1. Alkane (-CH3)

2. Alkene (-CH=CH-)

3. Alkyne (-C≡C-)

4. Alkyl (-CH2CH3)

5. Aldehyde (-CHO)

6. Ketone (-C(=O)-)

7. Carboxylic Acid (-COOH)

8. Ester (-COOR)

9. Ether (-O-)

10. Amine (-NH2)

11. Amide (-CONH2)

12. Nitrile (-C≡N)

13. Hydroxyl (-OH)

14. Thiol (-SH)

15. Sulfide (-S-)

16. Disulfide (-S-S-)

17. Halide (-X, X = F, Cl, Br, I)

18. Nitro (-NO2)

19. Azide (-N3)

20. Phosphine (-PH3)

21. Alkyl Halide (-CX3, X = F, Cl, Br, I)

22. Epoxide (-OCH2O-)

23. Azo (-N=N-)

24. Imine (-C=N-)

25. Enamine (-C=C-N-)

26. Cyanate (-OCN)

27. Isocyanate (-NCO)

28. Thiocyanate (-SCN)

29. Sulfonic Acid (-SO3H)

30. Sulfonyl Chloride (-SO2Cl)

31. Nitroso (-NO-)

32. Hydroperoxide (-OOH)

33. Peroxide (-O-O-)

34. Semicarbazone (-NH-NHC(=O)-NH2)

35. Hydrazine (-NHNH2)

36. Imino (-NH-C(=NH)-NH2)

38. Guanidine (-NH-C(=NH)-NH-C(=NH)-NH2)

39. Azide (-N3)

40. Azomethine (-C=N-N=C-)

41. Azonitrile (-N=N-C≡N)

42. Azoxy (-N=N-O-O-)

43. Azonium (-N=N+-)

44. Azonium Salt (-N3+)

45. Isocyanide (-C≡N)

46. Sulfinyl (-SO-)

47. Sulfoxide (-S(=O)-)

48. Sulfone (-S(=O)2-)
