CARBONYL COMPOUNDS
Consists of two main kinds
– Aldehyde – carbonyl group always appears on the
end of the hydrocarbon chain and has at least one
Hydrogen atom bonded to the carbonyl group.

Some ketones are best known by their
common names that give the names of the
two alkyl groups bonded to the carbonyl
group followed by the word ketone.
Ketones are named systematically by
replacing the final –e of the corresponding
alkane name with –one.
The numbering of the alkane chain begins at
the end nearest to the carbonyl group. The
location of the carbonyl group is indicated by
placing the number of the carbonyl carbon in
front of the name.

Synthesis Cont’d.
• Oxidation of Alcohols
• Aldehydes and Ketones may be respectively
prepared by the controlled oxidation of
primary and secondary alcohols respectively
using an acidified solution of potassium
dichromate or permanganate.

Industrial Preparation
Ethanal has been extensively manufactured by the catalytic
addition of water to ethyne. (This reaction is discussed under
alkynes)
Two factors that determine the solubility of carbonyl compounds in water are: (A) Dipole-dipole
attraction and (B) Hydrogen bonding.
16
Aldehydes and Ketones are more polar, so have higher
boiling points than comparable alkane or ether.
Aldehydes and ketones have lower boiling points compared
to alcohols and carboxylic acids of similar size because
they cannot hydrogen bond to each other.

Reactions to distinguish between
Aldehydes and Ketones
Fehlings test
Aldehyde also reduces fehlings solutions which contains a complex
ion of copper (II) Cu2+ with 2, 3 dihydroxybutanedioic acid (tartaric
acid). Fehling's solution A is copper (II) sulphate. Fehling's solution
B is a mixture of sodium hydroxide and sodium potassium tartarate.
Take a little bit of A solution and add solution B until the precipitate
of Cu(OH)2 formed is just redissolved to give deep blue solution. Add
the aldehyde and warm. Aldehydes reduce the Cu++ ions which is
converted to Cu2O ‘copper (I) ions’ (red/ brown precipitate).
