I'd like to know some products that are used with the chemical "aldehyde." Some that I know of already are dyes, perfumes, and medicines. What else?

An aldehyde is either a functional group consisting of a terminal carbonyl group or a compound containing a terminal carbonyl group.\n\nCommon reactions\naldehydes react with alcohols and an acid or base to a hemiacetal, the hemiacetal and alcohol and more acid catalyst further react to an acetal and water \nSimple hemiacetals are usually unstable, although cyclic ones such as glucose do exist. Acetals are stable, but these revert to the aldehyde in the presence of aqueous acid. \nTreating aldehydes with oxidizing agents such as potassium permanganate, nitric acid, chromium(VI) oxide or acidified potassium dichromate), will yield a carboxylic acid. \nTreating aldehydes with Tollens' reagent (which is prepared by adding a drop of sodium hydroxide solution into silver nitrate solution to give a precipitate of silver(I) oxide, and then adding just enough dilute ammonia solution to redissolve the precipitate in aqueous ammonia to produce [Ag(NH3)2]+ complex) will convert aldehydes to carboxylic acids without attacking carbon-carbon double-bonds. This reaction is also known as the silver mirror test. \nAldehydes can react with water (under acidic or basic conditions) to form hydrates, R-C(H)(OH)(OH), although these are only stable when strong electron withdrawing groups are present, as in chloral hydrate. The mechanism is identical to hemiacetal formation. \nAldehydes can react with HCN to form cyanohydrins, R-C(H)(OH)(CN). \nTreating an aldehyde with a Grignard reagent can yield an alcohol with a substituted group from the Grignard reagent. \nTreating aldehydes with NH3 derivatives (like NH2OH, H2NNH2, 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine) will result in the formation of an oxime or hydrazone. This is classed as an addition-elimination reaction or addition-condensation reaction. If the simple hydrazone (RCH=NHNH2) of an aldehyde is heated with a base such as KOH, the terminal carbon is fully reduced via the Wolff-Kishner reaction to a methyl group. The Wolff-Kishner reaction may be performed as a one-pot reaction, giving the overall conversion RCH=O → RCH3. \nReaction of aldehydes with reducing agents such as magnesium gives diols in a Pinacol coupling reaction \nThe Wittig reaction takes aldehydes to alkenes and the Corey-Fuchs reaction takes aldehydes to alkynes both with a triphenylphosphine reagent. The Corey-Chaykovsky reagent is a sulfonium ylide which convert aldehydes to epoxides. \n\nExamples of Aldehydes:\n\nMethanal (Formaldehyde) \nEthanal (Acetaldehyde) \nPropanal \nButanal \nPentanal \nGlucose \nBenzaldehyde

Alkaloids are amine-containing natural products; amines are basic (i.e. alkaline, hence the name).\nWith the exception of aspirin, the others you have mentioned are in fact alkaloids which happen to be white crystals. \n\nOrganic compounds are colorless unless there is some structural element within the molecule that absorbs color. This has nothing to do with bleach. Bleach does not turn organic molecules white--it usually causes a chemical reaction to take place.

butanal - acrid odor\nheptanal - seen this as citrus and also as dry fish. go figure!\noctanal - seen this as citrus and also rancid.\nnonanal - plums\n\nI think that some of the aldehydes odour could be subjective and vary from person to person and perhaps with time, or they may be a multitude of receptors that react differently.\n\nKetones. yes.  Go and ask your wife, girlfriend or mother for the nail polish remover.  That is usually acetone.  Most of the ketones will have that odour, some milder.

go to      www.braingle .com    click on the science link. \nthere is a couple of good one's. (ex) put rubbing alocohol on paper(better than 50%). burn. the paper will not burn due to different burning points.

They are all made, that job has been done . . . and they are so reactive that they are found in compounds. \n\nCould you make them  . . . no; could you find products with them in compounds . . .  sure.

Last year my nerdy friends and I made Christmas ornaments out of test tubes.  We got ahold of some stuff called Tollen's reagent that's used to perform the "silver mirror test".  That's used to distinguish between aldehydes and ketones because mixing Tollen's reagent with an aldehydes causes it to coat the vessel like a silver mirror, but nothing happens with ketones.  We mixed the Tollen's with an aldehyde and shook the test tubes until the mirrors formed, then decorated them.

Most people are not aware of this... the sad thing is that our skin is a sponge and absorbs many of those chemicals.  The same can be said for a lot of the cleaning/laundry products you use every day... Formaldehyde can be found in tooth paste and even baby shampoo... most people believe that if it is sold in stores it must be safe... sad truth is that many of the chemicals in our house hold and beauty products have never even been tested for their effects on humans...\n\nIf you are interested in learning more about products that are safer for you and your family... I work with an Inc 500 Company that carries five product lines of items that are the best of science and nature... they are safer, less expensive, just as effective, and better for the environment.  These lines cover almost anything you would use to clean your house, do your dishes, laundry, plus personal care items... toothpaste, shampoo, lotions, they have a complete cosmetic line, and even offer over the counter medicines and patented vitamins.  Contact me through yahoo360 or IM.

No they do not have to put all the ingredients on the package just the active ones. Anything can be listed as inert ingredients. Actually Johnson’s Baby Shampoo has Formaldehyde it uses the name quaternium-15. The link is below, you can check the bottle if you like. The FDA has extremely limited power. Here are the facts.\n The FDA cannot regulate a personal care product until it has been released into the marketplace.\n Neither personal care products nor their ingredients are reviewed or approved before they are sold to people.\n The FDA cannot require companies to do safety testing their personal care products before they are sold to people.\n The FDA cannot require recalls of harmful personal care products from the marketplace.\n The National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) analyzed 2,983 chemicals used in personal care products and found that-\n- 884 of the chemicals were toxic\n- 314 caused biological mutation\n- 218 caused reproductive complications\n- 778 caused acute toxicity\n- 148 caused tumors\n- 376 caused skin and eye irritations\n \n There are some disturbing facts-\n- A product that kill 50% of lab animals through ingestion or inhalation can still receive the federal regulatory designation "non-toxic"\n- Of the 17,000 chemicals that appear in common household products, only 30% have been adequately tested for their side effects on our health; less than 10% have been tested for their effects on the nervous system, and nothing is known about the combined effects of these chemicals when mixed in our bodies.\n- No law requires manufactures to list the exact ingredients on the label.\n\n I do not know what chemical is the numbing agent in Johnson’s baby shampoo but I have also heard that there is one. All a company has to list is active ingredients; the inert ingredients can be almost anything. Companies use trade names for hazardous chemicals such as quaternium-15 so we do not know what it actually is. Also companies are only required to list short-term effects of using their products and are not required to list effects of long-term exposure. This is no conspiracy theory it is politics, money greasing the right hands and turning a blind eye. I believe in a free market but not a hazardous one. Switching from personal care products has improved the health of everyone in my household but most of all my wife, she has had Migraines for years and the day we got all of these products out of our house they stopped cold! I can supply info on healthy alternatives for people that care about their health. In most cases these products cost much less than store brands and work better.

Chemexper.com its super cool , type in the name of the compound and it will give you a ton of info about the thing you are looking at. I order chemicals off of it but it was really useful in researching for my Ochem labs as well.

You should probably supply a list of chemicals.  If you really want this information about every single chemical known to man, you will have to get it in book form.

Carbonyl groups are not alkenes.\n\nThat being said, ketones and aldehydes that have hydrogens on the alpha carbon will react with bromine. This reactin is fairly quick.\n\nEsters and carboxylic acids do not react as quickly, but will eventually react. This reaction is known as the Hell-Volhard-Zelinsky reaction.\n\nIf you got a positive bromine test, you should use another test such as dinitrophenylhydrazine or the Tollens reagent to see if you have a carbonyl.

The free Vitamin C with Rosehips was an eye catcher. The tea selections and prices were excellent. I would have like to see\nhealth information links to possible uses of the vitamins. Shipping prices are too high for me and I will not order anything today even though the prices are excellent.

Dyestuffs, any of a large group of chemicals almost exclusively organic in nature, used for the colouring of textiles, inks, food products, and other substances. Modern industrial terminology defines a dyestuff as a product containing pure organic dye and cutting agents or fillers that make the product easier to handle. Dyes are not to be confused with pigments, which are pulverized coloured substances that must be mixed with adhesive binding agents before being applied to surfaces. See Dyeing.\n\nThe colour properties of organic compounds depend on their structure. In general, the coloured compounds used as dyes are unsaturated organic chemicals. The quality of possessing colour is particularly noticeable in compounds containing certain well-defined chemically unsaturated groupings. These groups, known as chromophores (colour bearers), are not all equally effective in producing colour.\n\nDyestuffs must be capable of entering and colouring textile fibres or other substances. Chemical radicals, known as auxochromes, have the property of anchoring the desired dye effectively. They are acidic or basic and give rise to acidic or basic dye salts. In the case of some compounds the addition of an auxochrome group also changes a colourless compound into a coloured one.\n\nThe basic raw materials of synthetic dyes are compounds, such as benzene, that are derived from the destructive distillation of coal (see Phenylamine; Coal Tar). For this reason synthetic dyestuffs are often popularly known as coal-tar dyes. From the basic materials, intermediates are manufactured by a number of chemical processes that, in general, involve the substitution of specific elements or chemical radicals for one or more of the hydrogen atoms in the basic substance.\n\nDyestuffs can be classified according to their use or by their chemical structure. The chemical classification is generally made according to the nucleus of the compound. Among the more important dye groups are the azo dyes, which include butter yellow and Congo red; the triphenylmethane dyes, which include magenta and methyl violet; the phthalein dyes; the azine dyes, which include mauve; and the anthraquinone dyes, which include alizarin. Indigo is a vat dye, occurring in nature in the crystalline glucoside indican. An important new group of dyes is the phthalocyanine dyes, which are blue or green in colour and resemble chlorophyll in chemical structure. Of all the groups of dyes the azo dyes are the most generally useful and widely employed. See Diazo Compounds.\n\nA stain is a chemical dye or pigment used to colour glass, paper, textiles, or wood. The staining substance, which uses alcohol, oil, or water as a vehicle, is transparent and thinner than paint or coating, and it penetrates into the grain of material being dyed. In microscopic and microchemical research, a dye or a chemical mixture used to distinguish between minute transparent structures is also called a stain.\n\nx
