These can be synthesized by ozonolysis of an alkene with a vinylic hydrogen or by treating an ester with sodium aluminum hydride. Blue copper sulfate is reduced to a red-colored copper oxide when these compounds are present in the Benedict Test. Treatment with Tollens' reagent converts them into carboxylic acids. Classically deriving from the dehydrogenation of alcohols, FTP, name these organic compounds which end in a terminal carbonyl group.
