Is cinnamaldehyde an aldehyde or ketone?
cinnamaldehyde is a aldehyde hence cinnam(aldehyde)
What is methyl ether of protocatechuic aldehyde?
methyl ether of protocatechuic aldehyde is commonly referred to as 'Piperonal'. it has a smell similar to vanilla and has the chemical formula C8H6O3. It is a commonly used precursor for the production of MDA.
What organic compounds class does octanal belong to?
Octanal is an aldehyde with the chemical formula CH3(CH2)6CHO.
What is the formula for aldehyde plus sodium hydrogen sulfite?
R - c - h -----> r - c- h
What is the common name of an aldehyde with a benzene attached to it?
Benzaldehyde has the formula C7H6O, it has the carbonyl carbon of the aldehyde bound to a benzene ring. You can't have a =O unit bound directly to the benzene ring because you would have a carbon with five bonds.
Does C2H5OH represents an aldehyde?
No - it represent s an alcohol (ethanol to be specific). The formula for the equivalent aldehyde, ethanal, would be c2h4oh.
What is the chemical formula for ethanal?
The chemical formula of ethanal (acetic aldehyde) is CH3CHO.
Does C2H4O represent aldehyde?
No. Or, at least, it doesn't exclusively represent "aldehyde", whatever you mean by that.An aldehyde is a compound containing the moiety -CHO. C2H4O is the empirical formula for ethanal, which is an aldehyde. However, it's also the empirical formula for vinyl alcohol, which is not. It's somewhere between difficult and impossible to say much about a compound based purely on its empirical formula.
Which formulas represents an aldehyde?
The formula that represents an aldehyde should be R-CHO. An aldehyde contains a carbonyl center bonded to an R group and a Hydrogen atom.
Is ch2o a compounf?
Yes. CH2O is the molecular formula of formaldehyde, the smallest aldehyde.
What is an aldoxime?
An aldoxime is an oxime derived from an aldehyde - with a general formula RCH=NOH.
What is an aldimine?
An aldimine is an imine derived from an aldehyde, with a general formula RCH=NR.
What is an aldazine?
An aldazine is an azine derived from an aldehyde, with the general formula RCH=NN=CHR.
How would you classify CHO in chemistry?
-CHO is the formula of the aldehyde group.
Is cinnamaldehyde an aldehyde or ketone?
cinnamaldehyde is a aldehyde hence cinnam(aldehyde)
What is methyl ether of protocatechuic aldehyde?
methyl ether of protocatechuic aldehyde is commonly referred to as 'Piperonal'. it has a smell similar to vanilla and has the chemical formula C8H6O3. It is a commonly used precursor for the production of MDA.
What organic compounds class does octanal belong to?
Octanal is an aldehyde with the chemical formula CH3(CH2)6CHO.
