Hello Steemians ,
Today I want share about aldehyde and ketone because my lil brother ask about it. This is just the basic information based on my understanding. I will post about the properties, synthesis and the chemical reaction later because i am so busy right now. I hope you guys like it.
STRUCTURE
IUPAC names for aldehyde: R -- CHO
The -e ending of the alkane replaced by --al
- For naming them, select from the longest chain of carbon atom with the -CHO group.
- Because aldehyde must be on the carbon number 1 so there is no need to give it number.
- Similar for alkene
- Example:
For a cyclic molecule, which is -CHO is bonded to the ring, we should add the suffix -carbaldehyde for example:
And Then For ....
Ketone IUPAC Nomenclature
-For ketone we change the -e to -one
-The rule of naming the ketone is same like aldehyde which is calculating the number of chain from the double bond -o
-For example:
Thank you for reading. I am newbie in this writting stuff and I will make it better next time. I hope someone can teach me how to write good article/note better in the future.
