For 10 points, name this type of compound exemplified by acetone that contains a carbonyl attached to two alkyl groups.
These compounds can be formed by reacting acyl halides with lithium dialkylcuprates. The ozonolysis of tetra-substituted alkenes results in two molecules with this functional group. Reacting these compounds with hydrazine and a strong base results in their complete conversion to alkanes. Acids or bases can catalyze their tautomerization into enols, and they can be synthesized by the oxidation of secondary alcohols. The simplest one of these is used to clean glassware in chemistry labs and is also found in nail polish remover.
