Quantitative Scale for the Extent of Conjugation of Carbonyl Groups: “Carbonylicity” Percentage as a Chemical Driving Force

Abstract

Despite the carbonyl group being one of the most pervasive chemical building blocks in natural, synthetic, and industrial processes, its exact description in terms of precise quantification of the degree of carbonyl conjugation has yet to be determined. The present work suggests a novel yet simple method for quantifying the conjugation in general carbonyl groups (such as ketones, aldehydes, carboxylic acids and their respective halogenides, …
