Document Summary

Section 16. 1: structure and bonding: the functional group of an aldehyde is a carbonyl group bonded to a hydrogen atom and a carbon atom. In methanal (formaldehyde), the simplest aldehyde, the carbonyl group is bonded to two hydrogen atoms. For unsaturated aldehydes, the presence of a carbon-carbon double or triple bond is indicated by the infix -en- or -yn- Section 16. 3: physical properties: oxygen is more electronegative than carbon; therefore, a carbon-oxygen double bond is polar, with oxygen bearing a partial negative charge and carbon bearing a partial positive charge. In addition, the resonance structure emphasizes the reactivity of the carbonyl oxygen as a. If none of the starting materials are chiral, the nucleophile will approach the carbonyl from either side with equal probability, resulting in a carbonyl addition product that consists of a racemic mixture. Nucleophilic addition of a grignard reagent to the electrophilic carbonyl carbon atom gives a tetrahedral carbonyl addition compound: add a proton.
