ketonealcohol
Ketonealcohol is a class of organic compounds that contain both a ketone functional group and an alcohol functional group. These compounds are characterized by the presence of a carbonyl group (C=O) adjacent to a hydroxyl group (OH). The general structure of ketonealcohols can be represented as R1R2C=O-R3OH, where R1, R2, and R3 are alkyl or aryl groups.
Ketonealcohols are often named by combining the names of the ketone and alcohol parts of the molecule.
