Summary
Mechanism:
Nucleophile (Nu") attacks the carbonyl group perpendicular to the plane of sp2 hybridised orbitals
of
t
ne
carbonyl carbon.
ln the process, hybridisation of carbon changes from sp2 to sp3.
e.
A tetrahedral alkoxide is formed as intermediate.
Reactivity: Aldehydes are more reactive than ketones in nucleophilic addition reactions
iv
at
re
nc
There are two factors which influence the reactivity of ketone and aldehyde.
(i) Inductive effect (ii) Steric factor
ar
(i) + l effect of alkyl group decreases the amount of charge on C+ (C+ - O-). in ketones.
.le
(ii) Steric effect also causes the less reactivity of carbonyl group.
Addition elimination reactions:
w
certain compounds related to ammonia add to the carbonyl group to form derivatives that are
w
important
chiefly for the characterization and identification of aldehydes and Ketones, the product contains
w
a carbon nitrogen double bond resulting from elimination of a molecule of water from the initial
addition products.
..
Reaction with ammonia derivatives ( H 2 N − Z ) :
This reaction is nucleophilic addition followed by water elimination.

It is condensation between two moles of carbonyl compounds among which at lease one must have
α – hydrogen atom in dilute basic media to get α, β – unsaturated aldehyde / ketone via the
formation of β – hydroxy aldehyde / ketone.
Cannizzaro reaction:
Carbonyl compounds not having α – hydrogen atom undergo disproportionation or redox reaction
in strong basic media.

Haloform reaction:
Acetaldehyde and methylalkyl ketones react rapidly with halogen (Cl2, Br2, or I2) in the presence
of alkali to give haloform and acid salt.
