Functional groups aldehydic

Carbonyl functional groups are the easiest to identify of all IR absorptions because of their sharp, intense peak in the range 1670 to 1780 cm-1. Most important, the exact position of absorption within the range can often be used to identify the exact kind ot carbonyl functional group—aldehyde, ketone, ester, and so forth. 

Hydro carbonylation of olefins, hydroformylation, hydroesterification and hy-droxycarbonylation are reactions which appear to be of particular interest. Indeed, they allow the simultaneous creation of a new C - C bond as well as the introduction of a functional group (aldehyde, ester and acids). One or two new stereogenic centres can thus be formed at the same time (Scheme 26). Despite the difficulty of using high carbon monoxide pressure, the aheady existing industrial processes prove that such reactions can be performed on a very large scale [107]. 

Bobrowski and Das33 studied the transient absorption phenomena observed in pulse radiolysis of several retinyl polyenes at submillimolar concentrations in acetone, n -hexane and 1,2-dichloroethane under conditions favourable for radical cation formation. The polyene radical cations are unreactive toward oxygen and are characterized by intense absorption with maxima at 575-635 nm. The peak of the absorption band was found to be almost independent of the functional group (aldehyde, alcohol, Schiff base ester, carboxylic acid). In acetone, the cations decay predominantly by first-order kinetics with half life times of 4-11 ps. The bimolecular rate constant for quenching of the radical cations by water, triethylamine and bromide ion in acetone are in the ranges (0.8-2) x 105, (0.3-2) x 108 and (3 — 5) x 1010 M 1 s 1, respectively. 

The name aldol is derived from the names of the two functional groups, aldehyde and alcohol, present in the products. The aldol and ketol readily lose water to give a,p-unsaturated carbonyl compounds which are aldol condensation products and the reaction is called Aldol condensation. Though ketones give ketols (compounds containing a keto and alcohol groups), the general name aldol condensation still applies to the reactions of ketones due to their similarity with aldehydes.

This reaction is generally part of a sequence followed by Claisen rearrangement to generate a remote functional group (aldehyde).

Carbohydrates are simple neutral biomolecules composed of C, H, and O, and are classified on the basis of their number of stmctural sugar units and functional group (aldehyde or ketone). 

Ketone synthesis. Ketones can be obtained in notably high yield by the reaction of acid chlorides with organotin compounds in the presence of this palladium(II) complex (equation I). The reaction is faster in HMPT, but THF can be used. The naction is compatible with many functional groups aldehyde, nitrile, nitro,... 

Monosaccharides are identified by their carbonyl functional group (aldehyde or ketone) and by the number of carbon atoms they contain. The simplest monosaccharides are the two trioses glyceraldehyde (an aldotriose) and dihydroxyacetone (aketotriose). Four-, five-, six-, and seven-carbon-containing monosaccharides are called tet-roses, pentoses, hexoses, and heptoses, respectively. Structures of some monosaccharides are shown in Figure 9-1. All monosaccharides, with the exception of dihydroxyacetone, contain at least one asymmetrical or chiral carbon atom, and therefore two or more stereoisomers are... 

Of the functional groups, carboxylic acids are the highest priority and named with a suffix the other functional groups - aldehydes, ketones, alcohols and amines are named with prefixes if in a molecule where a carboxylic acid has received the suffix designation.

Many compounds found in nature have aldehyde or ketone functional groups. Aldehydes have pungent odors, whereas ketones tend to smell sweet. Vanillin and cinnamaldehyde are examples of naturally occurring aldehydes. A whiff of vanilla extract will allow you to appreciate the pungent odor of vanilla. The ketones carvone and camphor are responsible for the characteristic sweet odors of spearmint leaves, caraway seeds, and the camphor tree. 

These contain the C=0 functional group. Aldehydes have the general formula RCHO, and ketones the general formula RCOR where R and R are alkyl or aryl groups, and may or may not be different.

Since under basic conditions the aldehyde molecules partially dissociate, their mixture contains two molecular species, dissociated and undissociated. The dissociated molecule, the enolate ion can behave as nucleophile because of the electron pair on its carbon atom. This nucleophile can attack the carbonyl group of the undissociated aldehyde yielding a product with two functional groups, aldehyde and alcohol. Such compounds are named aldols and the corresponding reaction is called aldol condensation.
