What happens when
Predict the products formed when CH₃CHO reacts with the following reagents : (Any two)
Write the products of the following reactions :
Do the following conversions in not more than two steps :
Give the structure of the major product expected from the following reactions :
The carbon – oxygen double bond is polarised in aldehydes and ketones due to higher electronegativity of oxygen relative to carbon. Therefore they undergo nucleophilic addition reactions with a number of nucleophiles such as HCN, NaHSO₃, alcohols, ammonia derivatives and Grignard reagents. Aldehydes are easily oxidised by mild oxidising agents as compared to ketones. The carbonyl group of carboxylic acid does not give reactions of aldehydes and ketones. Carboxylic acids are considerably more acidic than alcohols and most of simple phenols. Answer the following:
