Aldol Reaction

Aldol Reaction is an organic chemical reaction in which a carbon–carbon bond is formed between two carbonyl compounds, typically an enol or enolate ion and an aldehyde or ketone, resulting in the formation of a β-hydroxy carbonyl compound, thereby distinguishing it from other carbonyl condensation reactions by the specific formation of a hydroxyl-substituted ketone or aldehyde product.
