Alcohols, Phenols, Ethers, Aldehydes, and Ketones Aldehydes and Ketones

In an aldehyde, an H atom is attached to a carbonyl group Ocarbonyl group  CH 3 -C-H In a ketone, two carbon groups are attached to a carbonyl group Ocarbonyl group  CH 3 -C-CH 3

Naming Aldehydes IUPAC Replace the -e in the alkane name -al Common Add aldehyde to the prefixes form (1C), acet (2C), propion(3), and butry(4C) O O O    H-C-H CH 3 -C-HCH 3 CH 2 C-H methanal ethanal propanal (formaldehyde) (acetaldehyde) (propionaldehyde)
