Aldehydes and Ketones
O
• In an aldehyde, at
least one H atom is
attached to a
carbonyl group.
• In a ketone, two
carbon groups are
attached to a
carbonyl group.
C
Naming Aldehydes
Step 1
Select the longest carbon chain
that contains the carbonyl group (C=O).
Step 2
Number from the end nearest C=O group.
Step 3
Change the ending of parent alkane from -e to -al.
No number for carbonyl group C=O (it always comes first).
Step 4
Give the location and name of each substituent
(alphabetical order) as a prefix to the name of the
main chain.
Naming Aldehydes
• Common names for the first two aldehydes use the prefixes “form” (1C)
and “acet” (2C) followed by “aldehyde”.

Naming Ketones
Step 1
Select the longest carbon chain
that contains the carbonyl group (C=O).
Step 2
Number from the end nearest C=O group.
Step 3
Change the ending of parent alkane from -e to -one.
Use the number to show the location of C=O.
Step 4
Give the location and name of each substituent
(alphabetical order) as a prefix to the name of the
main chain.
Naming Ketones
• In the common name, name the “alkyl groups” alphabetically attached
to the carbonyl group and add the word “ketone”.

Physical properties of Aldehydes and Ketones
1. They have strong odors (ketones have pleasant odors).
δ-
2. They are polar compounds.
C-O
δ+
3.5-2.5 = 1
3. Only dipole-dipole interactions (no hydrogen bonding).
4. Low boiling points compare to amines and alcohols.
Higher than hydrocarbons.

5. Soluble in water (no soluble in nonpolar compounds).

2. Reduction:
Like reducing the alkene (C = C) to alkane (C – C):
– Reduction of an aldehyde gives a primary alcohol (-CH2OH).
– Reduction of a ketone gives a secondary alcohol (-CHOH-).
