CARBONYL COMPOUNDS
1. Acyclic aldehydes and ketones with saturated
carbon chains have the general formula
CnH2nO. They contain the oxo,
C O
or carbonyl group.
R
C O
2. In aldehydes,
one of the
H
available valencies of the carbonyl carbon is
occupied by a hydrogen, therefore the
aldehyde group always occurs at the end of a
chain.
R
3. In ketones, R' C O R and R are alkyl groups,
so the keto group occurs within a chain.

CARBONYL COMPOUNDS
4.
Bonding
The carbonyl carbon is sp2 hybridized.
In a ketone, it is connected by
two (sigma) bonds to the
C
adjacent carbon atoms
O
by sp2 (C) sp3 (C) overlap.
A third bond connects the
C
carbonyl carbon to the oxygen
atom by by sp2 (C) 2p (O) overlap.
The bond is formed by 2p(C) 2p(O) overlap.
Carbonyl groups are flat. The electrons are above and
below the trigonal plane formed by the sp2 orbitals of the
carbonyl carbon.

CARBONYL COMPOUNDS
7 (b) It is also possible to draw a dipolar
resonance form of a carbonyl group.
CARBONYL COMPOUNDS
8. As a result of the high electron density on
the oxygen atom of carbonyl groups,
carbonyl compounds participate in
hydrogen bonding with compounds which
contain active hydrogen.
