Nomenclature of Aldehydes and Ketones Aldehydes are named by replacing the -e of the corresponding
parent alkane with -al5 The aldehyde functional group is always carbon 1 and need not be numbered
5 Some of the common names of aldehydes are shown in parenthesis
Aldehyde functional groups bonded to a ring are named using thesuffix carbaldehyde5 Benzaldehyde is used more commonly than the name benzenecarbaldehyde

Ketones are named by replacing the -e of the correspondingparent alkane with -one5 The parent chain is numbered to give the ketone carbonyl the lowest possible
number
5 In common nomenclature simple ketones are named by preceding the wordketone with the names of both groups attached to the ketone carbonyl
Common names of ketones that are also IUPAC names are shownbelow

Physical PropertiesMolecules of aldehyde (or ketone) cannot hydrogen bond to each
other5 They rely only on intermolecular dipole-dipole interactions and therefore have
lower boiling points than the corresponding alcohols
Aldehydes and ketones can form hydrogen bonds with water andtherefore low molecular weight aldehydes and ketones haveappreciable water solubility

Synthesis of Aldehydes Aldehydes by Oxidation of 1o Alcohols
Primary alcohols are oxidized to aldehydes by PCC
Aldehydes by Reduction of Acyl Chlorides, Esters andNitriles Reduction of carboxylic acid to aldehyde is impossible to stop at
the aldehyde stage5 Aldehydes are much more easily reduced than carboxylic acids

Chapter 16 7
Reduction to an aldehyde can be accomplished by using a morereactive carboxylic acid derivatives such as an acyl chloride, esteror nitrile and a less reactive hydride source5 The use of a sterically hindered and therefore less reactive aluminum hydride
reagent is important
Acid chlorides react with lithium tri-tert-butoxyaluminum hydrideat low temperature to give aldehydes

Ketones from AlkynesMarkovnikov hydration of an alkyne initially yields a vinyl alcohol
(enol) which then rearranges rapidly to a ketone (keto)
The rearrangement is called a keto-enol tautomerization (Section17.2)5 This rearrangement is an equilibrium which usually favors the keto form

Nucleophilic Addition to the Carbonyl Groups Addition of a nucleophile to a carbonyl carbon occurs because of
the + charge at the carbon
Addition of strong nucleophiles such as hydride or Grignard
reagents result in formation of a tetrahedral alkoxide intermediate5 The carbonyl electrons shift to oxygen to give the alkoxide5 The carbonyl carbon changes from trigonal planar to tetrahedral

Relative Reactivity: Aldehydes versus Ketones Aldehydes are generally more reactive than ketones
5 The tetrahedral carbon resulting from addition to an aldehyde is less sterically
hindered than the tetrahedral carbon resulting from addition to a ketone5 Aldehyde carbonyl groups are more electron deficient because they have only
one electron-donating group attached to the carbonyl carbon

The Addition of Alcohols: Hemiacetals andAcetals
Hemiacetals An aldehyde or ketone dissolved in an alcohol will form an
equilibrium mixture containing the corresponding hemiacetal5 A hemiacetal has a hydroxyl and alkoxyl group on the same carbon
5 Acylic hemiacetals are generally not stable, however, cyclic five- and six-membered ring hemiacetals are

Dissolving aldehydes (or ketones) in water causes formation of anequilibrium between the carbonyl compound and its hydrate5 The hydrate is also called a gem-diol (gem i.e. geminal,indicates the presence of
two identical substituents on the same carbon)
5 The equilibrum favors a ketone over its hydrate because the tetrahedral ketonehydrate is sterically crowded

Chapter 16 22
Acetals An aldehyde (or ketone) in the presence of excess alcohol and an
acid catalyst will form an acetal
5 Formation of the acetal proceeds via the corresponding hemiacetal5 An acetal has two alkoxyl groups bonded to the same carbon

Acetal formation is reversible5 An excess of water in the presence of an acid catalyst will hydrolyze an acetal to
the corresponding aldehyde (or ketone)

Chapter 16 24
Acetal formation from ketones and simple alcohols is lessfavorable than formation from aldehydes5 Formation of cyclic 5- and 6- membered ring acetals from ketones is, however,
favorable
5 Such cyclic acetals are often used as protecting groups for aldehydes andketones
5 These protecting groups can be removed using dilute aqueous acid

Spectroscopic Properties of Aldehydes and Ketones IR Spectra of Aldehydes and Ketones
Aldehydes and ketones have strong carbonyl stretching frequencies inthe 1665-1780 cm-1 region
Conjugation shifts the IR frequency about 40 cm-1 lower because the
carbonyl has less double bond character5 Single bonds stretch more easily than double bonds
Vibrations of the C-H bond in an aldehyde gives two weak butcharacteristic bands at 2700-2775 and 2820-2900 cm-1
