[BYOO-tah-nol], and a common test for these substances looks for the creation of iodoform [ie-oe-doe-FORM].
One example of these compounds is produced by the oxidation of 2-butanol [BYOO-tah-nol], and a common test for these substances looks for the creation of iodoform [ie-oe-doe-FORM]. When humans produce too much of these chemicals because of too much fatty acid breakdown, their blood turns acidic, which is a diabetes symptom. The simplest example of this, used as nail polish remover, is acetone [A-suh-tone]. Name these carbonyls [KAHR-buh-nils] that are not aldehydes [AL-duh-hides] because the central carbon is bonded to two other carbons.
