(organic chemistry) Any of a class of compounds of general formula R₁R₂C(OH)OR' (where R' is not H and R₁ or R₂ is often hydrogen).
The general structure of a hemiacetal (left) and hemiketal (right).
(organic chemistry) Any of a class of compounds of general formula R₁R₂C(OH)OR' (where R' is not H and R₁ or R₂ is often hydrogen).
Structures of some readily isolable hemiacetals and hemiketals. Chloral and ethyl glyoxalate illustrate the stabilizing influence of electron-withdrawing groups. The cyclopropanone case illustrates the effect of ring-strain. The two cases on the right illustrate the effect of ring-closure.
(organic chemistry) Any of a class of compounds of general formula R₁R₂C(OH)OR' (where R' is not H and R₁ or R₂ is often hydrogen).
Left: glucose, a cyclic hemiacetal.
