Aldehydes and Ketones
 In an aldehyde, a carbon group and an H atom is
attached to a carbonyl group
O

CH3 - C - H
carbonyl group
carbonyl group always joined to at least
one hydrogen (meaning it is always on
the end!)
Aldehydes and Ketones
 In a ketone, two carbon groups are attached to a
carbonyl group
O
carbonyl group

CH3 - C - CH3
carbon of the carbonyl group is joined to
two other carbons (meaning it is never
on the end)
Naming Aldehydes
 IUPAC Replace the -e in the alkane name with –al
 Common Add aldehyde to the prefixes form (1C),
acet (2C), propion(3), and butry(4C)

Naming Ketones
 In the IUPAC name, the -e in the alkane name is
replaced with -one
 In the common name, add the word ketone
after naming the alkyl groups attached to the
