5.2 Physical properties of aldehydes and ketones and intermolecular bonding forces
5.4 The structure and reactivity of aldehydes and ketones and nucleophilic addition of hydrogen cyanide
5.5 The reduction of aldehydes and ketones with NaBH4 and LiAlH4 and reduction of nitriles to amines 5.7 The oxidation of aldehydes and ketones, link with chemical tests and the iodoform reaction 5.8 The uses of aldehydes and ketones and their occurrence in nature See also Part 15 Organic Chemistry Spectroscopy - examples of IR, mass, H-1 NMR and C-13 NMR spectra and aldehyde and ketone spectra listed below Aldehydes and ketones reaction mechanisms The following notes have basic reaction conditions, reagents and general equations as well as detailed notes on the mechanisms indicated (overlap because they were written before above sections 5.2 to 5.8 were compiled) Part 10.6 Carbonyl compounds - ALDEHYDES and KETONES - introduction to their chemical reactivity Nucleophilic addition of hydrogen cyanide to aldehydes and ketones to form a hydroxy-nitrile Addition of hydrogen to aldehydes and ketones - reduction with LiAlH4 or NaBH4 to give alcohols The iodination of ketones e.g. a 2-one like propanone (a methyl ketone) to give iodo-ketones
