Document Summary

The geometry around the carbonyl is trigonal planar. Provide an even wider variety of possible compounds. Aldehyde group and the ketone group: aldehydes are regularly written as a -cho ketones are regularly written as -co- both have a carbonyl. In the iupac name for aldehydes we will look for: al . In the iupac name for ketones we will look for: one . Ketone nomenclature: common simple ketone names name alkyl groups attached to carbonyl group + ketone . Drop the e and replace with one of the parent chain containing the carbonyl group. Number the chain to give carbonyl group the lowest # Ketone carbon #1 is cycloketone structures: smells like maraschino cherries, was used as cherry flavor, excess amounts shown to cause cancer. For the aldehyde: oxidation happens very easilyjust with exposure to atmospheric oxygen, not often seen in biochemistry, used to differentiate between aldehydes and ketones.
