What does Clemmensen reduction do to OH group?
Aldehydes and ketones haven't an -OH group.
Are monomers and polymers of aldehydes and keytones that have hydroxyl groups attached?
No, monomers and polymers of aldehydes and ketones do not have hydroxyl groups attached. Aldehydes and ketones have a carbonyl group (C=O) attached to at least one carbon atom and do not have any hydroxyl groups (-OH) attached to the carbon chain.
What is borsch reagent and its reaction?
bORSCH REAGENT ALSO CALLED bRADY REAGENT .iT IS USED TO DETCT ALDEHYDES AND KETONES
Do carbohydrates essentially act as ketones or aldehydes n their reactions?
No, their 'OH' groups are usually involved in chemical reactions.
Which class of molecules of molecules contains the carbonyl groupCO?
The carbonyl group exist in ketones, aldehydes, esters etc.
Which two groups have the same functional group?
ketones and aldehydes
Why are aldehydes more reactive than ketones towards nucleophile?
Aldehydes are less sterically hindered than ketones. Also, aldehydes have fewer electron donating groups (EDG's) which can stabilize an electron-poor area. The extra carbon chain that ketones have that aldehydes do not have are the reason for both of these things. The neighboring carbon to the carbonyl carbon is an EDG and the carbon chain causes steric hindrance.
What types of aldehydes and ketones would you expect to be water-soluble?
The aldehydes and ketones having three or less carbon atoms are soluble in water.
Why is ketones and aldehydes are called as polar compounds?
aldehydes n ketones contain a carbonyl group in which carbon is attached to an oxygen with a double bond. The carbon is less electronegative than oxygen therefore carbon acts as an electrophile and oxygen acts an a nucleophile. That is carbon is partially positively charged n oxygen is partially negatively charged. Hence aldehydes n ketones are polar compounds
Aldehydes and ketones may be reduced to?
alcohol
How are ketone and aldehydes related?
Aldehydes and ketones contain the carbonyl group C=O.
From an organic chemistry perspective carbohydrates are polyhydroxyl?
Aldehydes and ketones
What contain carbon double bonds?
All the alkene hydrocarbons, all ketones and aldehydes, organic acid, carbon dioxide, and other compounds contain doubly bonded carbon atoms.
How does ketones react with sodium bicarbonate?
Ketones or Aldehydes DO NOT react with Sodium Bicarbonate..generally only Carboxilic acids have the ability to do it!
What does Clemmensen reduction do to OH group?
Aldehydes and ketones haven't an -OH group.
What are products of ozonolysis of natural rubber?
alcohols, aldehydes or ketones, or carboxylic acids
Tollen's test on ketones?
A Silver mirror does not appear as ketones cannot be further oxidized unlike aldehydes in which a silver mirror does appear.
