ketones | In general ketones (R-CO-R) take the suffix "-one" (pronounced own, not won) with an infix position number: CH3CH2CH2COCH3 is pentan-2-one. If a higher precedence suffix is in use, the prefix "oxo-" is used: CH3CH2CH2COCH2CHO is 3-oxohexanal. |
The addition compound can be split easily to regenerate the aldehyde or ketone by treating it with either dilute acid or dilute alkali.
The reaction is usually used during the purification of aldehydes (and any ketones that it works for).
