Question

Acetone has a structure. So in acetophenone, one C of is replaced by phenyl. Similarly acetamide C is replaced by amide. So why not the same in acetoaldehyde or acetonitrile? How will I determine structures if aceto + some functional group is attached?

Solution

The common name for the two carbon atom is called aceto. In aldehyde one carbon atom is the functional group itself. In acetonitrile also the same.
