In chemistry , a ketone /ˈkiːtoʊn/ is a functional group with the structure RC ( =O ) R ' , where R and R ' can be a variety of carbon-containing substituents . Ketones and aldehydes are simple compounds that contain a carbonyl group ( a carbon-oxygen double bond ) . They are considered simple because they do not have reactive groups like −OH or −Cl attached directly to the carbon atom in the carbonyl group , as in carboxylic acids containing −COOH . Many ketones are known and many are of great importance in industry and in biology . Examples include many sugars ( ketoses ) and the industrial solvent acetone , which is the smallest ketone .
