This module covers aldehydes and ketones as the substrates and products of redox reactions. Structure is explained with both Lewis structures and molecular orbitals to discuss mechanisms in the ...

Organocadmium compounds are generally considered to be very reactive with acid chlorides, but practically inert towards aldehydes and ketones 1, thus making possible the important ‘Organocadmium ...

Esters, fats and oils Esters are formed in condensation reactions and broken by hydrolysis ... and are hydrolysed by our bodies. Aldehydes and ketones are compounds with carbonyl groups that ...

reactions of organic alcohols, ethers, epoxides, aldehydes and ketones, carboxylic acids, and amine compounds. When appropriate, examples will be provided that relate to those typical polymerization ...
