Ketones and Aldehydes
Thursday, April 28, 2011 /5:47 PM

Ketones
- is a hydrogencarbon chain with a double bonded oxygen that is NOT on either end. IT IS USUALLY AROUND THE MIDDLE.




-follow standard rules and add -one to the parent chain

Examples:
Draw the structural diagrams for the following ketones.

1)2,4 dimethyl 3 pentanone
2) 5 bromo 2 chloro 3 ethyl 4 heptanone










Name the following ketones:

















1) 4 methly 2 hexanone
2) 1 cyclopentanone
3) 5 bromo 4 phenyl 3 heptanone

Alydehydes
-is a compund that has a double bond oxygen at the END of a chain
- the simplest aldehyde is methanal AKA formaldehyde
- follow the standard rules and change the parent chain ending to "-AL"
   * BE CAREFUL WHEN NAMING ALDEHYDES AND ALCOHOLS.*

Example:
Draw the following structural or line diagrams for
1) 3,3 dimethyl pentanal
2) Ethanal
3) 3 chloro 2 methyl hexanal
