Carbonyl compounds contain a carbonyl group (C=O) and include aldehydes and ketones. Aldehydes have at least one hydrogen atom attached to the carbonyl carbon, while ketones have two alkyl or aryl groups bonded to the carbonyl carbon. Carbonyl compounds undergo common reactions like reduction to alcohols, condensation reactions, addition reactions, and reactions with Grignard reagents. They are also oxidized by strong oxidizing agents. Aldehydes are more reactive than ketones in reactions due to the electro
