Aldehyde in a sentence

The joining of two aldehyde sugars to form a disaccharide removes the −OH from the carboxy group at the aldehyde end of one sugar.

If they added more lilac aldehyde -- at levels found in the blunt-leaf orchid's close relatives -- mosquitoes were indifferent or repelled by the scent.

Several toxicants have been found in mainstream Shisha smoke including Nicotine, Carbon monoxide, Carcinogenic, Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons, Aromatic Amines, Aldehyde Furanic and Phenolic compounds, Tar, Particulate matter, Heavy metals, and Ammonia.

The brain imaging studies revealed that nonanal and lilac aldehyde stimulate different parts of the antenna lobe — and even compete with one another when stimulated.

A good example is the formation of acetal from the interaction between propylene glycol (PG) and aldehyde-based flavourants.

The enzyme, retinaldehyde dehydrogenase add Hydrogen atoms to the aldehyde, retinal, converting it to the alcohol form, Retinol.

Acetals are stable, but revert to the aldehyde in the presence of acid.

Characterization An aldehyde differs from a ketone because of its hydrogen atom attached to its carbonyl group, making aldehydes easier to oxidize.

Conversely, members of certain ethnicities that traditionally did not use alcoholic beverages have lower levels of alcohol dehydrogenases and thus "sober up" very slowly, but reach lower aldehyde concentrations and have milder hangovers.

If the presence of another functional group demands the use of a suffix, the aldehyde group is named with the prefix formyl-.

In these closed-chain forms, the aldehyde or ketone group remains non-free, so many of the reactions typical of these groups cannot occur.

Lactobacillus species metabolize tryptophan into indole-3-aldehyde (I3A) which acts on the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) in intestinal immune cells, in turn increasing interleukin-22 (IL-22) production.

Saccharose does not have a reducing end because of full acetal formation between the aldehyde carbon of glucose (C1) and the keto carbon of fructose (C2).

Synthesis from carbonyl compounds Another important method for alkene synthesis involves construction of a new carbon–carbon double bond by coupling of a carbonyl compound (such as an aldehyde or ketone ) to a carbanion equivalent.

The addition of water to alkynes is a related reaction except the initial enol intermediate converts to the ketone or aldehyde.

The aldehyde form of glucose It is important to note that the linear form of glucose makes up less than 3% of the glucose molecules in a water solution.

The dithiadecalin product (9) is then converted to both a ketone (10) and an aldehyde (11).

The group—without R—is the aldehyde group, also known as the formyl group.

The hydroboration of alkynes gives vinylic boranes which oxidize to the corresponding aldehyde or ketone.

The main action of these aldehyde fixatives is to cross-link amino groups in proteins through the formation of methylene bridges (-CH 2 -), in the case of formaldehyde, or by C 5 H 10 cross-links in the case of glutaraldehyde.
