Aldehydes & Ketones mind map
  1. Simplest aldehyde - formaldehyde
    1. Most reactive aldehyde - little steric hindrance
      1. Hydrogen better withdrawing group than alkyl group
        1. Therefore aldehydes have greater partial positive charge
    2. Simplest Ketone = propanone
      1. Aldehyde general formula: RCHO or R(C=O)H
        1. Ketone general formula:R(C=O)R
          1. Ketones and aldehydes = polar
            1. C=O - Oxygen more electronegative than carbon - dipoles occur
