Hydration of an Aldehyde or Ketone in Basic Solution

Hydration of an Aldehyde or Ketone in Basic Solution THE OVERALL REACTION  [Pg.738]

Step 1 Nucleophilic addition of hydroxide ion to the carbonyl group [Pg.738]

Step 2 Proton transfer from water to the intermediate formed in step 1 [Pg.738]

Steric and electronic effects influence the rate of nucleophilic addition to a pro-tonated carbonyl group in much the same way as they do for the case of a neutral one, and protonated aldehydes react faster than protonated ketones. [Pg.738]

With this as background, let us now examine how the principles of nucleophilic addition apply to the characteristic reactions of aldehydes and ketones. We ll begin with the addition of hydrogen cyanide. [Pg.738]
