Ketonförening is a Swedish term that translates to "ketone compound" in English. Ketones are a class of organic compounds characterized by the presence of a carbonyl group (C=O) bonded to two carbon atoms. The general formula for a ketone is R-CO-R', where R and R' are alkyl or aryl groups. The carbonyl carbon is typically sp2 hybridized, and the presence of this polar functional group significantly influences the chemical and physical properties of the molecule.
Ketones are found in various natural and synthetic substances. For instance, acetone (propanone) is a common
