6. "From Acetone to Butanone: Exploring the World of Ketones"
Ketones are organic compounds characterized by a carbonyl group (C=O) bonded to two carbon atoms. They are important in chemistry, biology, and industry. Naturally occurring ketones play a crucial role in metabolism, such as in ketogenesis, where the body produces ketone bodies for energy during fasting or low-carbohydrate diets. Common ketones include acetone, butanone (MEK), and cyclohexanone, widely used in solvents, pharmaceuticals, and fragrances.
