Nomenclature of
Aldehydes and Ketones

IUPAC Nomenclature of Aldehydes
•
•
•
Select as the parent compound the longest
chain of carbon atoms that contains the
functional group.
For aldehydes, change the suffix –e of the
parent name to –al.
Aldehyde carbon is carbon 1.


IUPAC Nomenclature of Ketones
•
•
•
Select as the parent compound the longest
chain of carbon atoms that contains the
functional group.
For ketones, change the suffix –e of the
parent name to –one.
Number the chain so that the ketone group
gets the lowest number.

Common Names
The common name for an aldehyde is
derived from the common name of the
corresponding carboxylic acid by
changing the suffix –ic to –aldehyde.

naming the two alkyl or aryl groups attached to
the carbonyl group, followed by the word
ketone.
