(iii)When phenol reacts with cone. HNO_{3} it gets converted into picric acid (2, 4, 6-trinitro-phenol)   

(iv) The widely known 'wood spirit' or Methanol, CH_{3}OH is made by destructive distillation of wood.

(v) Neutral ferric chloride is a well know reagent used for phenolic group detection, and it imparts purple/red colour when mixed with phenols.
