reduction - Answer increasing the hydrogen content or decreasing the oxygen content reduction of carboxylic acid gives... - Answer primary alcohol reduction of ester gives... - Answer primary alcohol reduction of aldehyde gives... - Answer primary alcohol reduction of ketone gives... - Answer secondary alcohol reduction of carbonyls by hydrogenation - Answer 1. only works for aldehydes and ketones ease of reduction - Answer carboxylic acids < esters < ketone...

Chemical properties of Aldehydes and Ketones Reactions common to both Aldehydes and Ketones The difference between an Aldehyde and a Ketone is the position of the C=O (Carbonyl group). Aldehyde – always on a carbon at the end of the chain Ketone – Always on a carbon at middle carbon of the chain 1. BOTH Aldehydes and Ketones can be reduced Aldehyde reduced to Primary Alcohol Reducing agent = Sodium tetrahydroborate III (NaBH4) Ketone reduced to Secondary Alcohol Reduction Oxidisatio...

MCAT Organic Chemistry Questions and Answers | Latest Update | 2024/2025 | 100% Verified What is the product of the oxidation of a primary alcohol? The product is an aldehyde. Further oxidation yields a carboxylic acid. What is the primary reagent used for the reduction of ketones to secondary alcohols? The primary reagent is sodium borohydride (NaBH4) or lithium aluminum hydride (LiAlH4). What is the characteristic reaction of a carboxylic acid with an amine? The reaction ...
