• Aldolization — A nucleophilic addition chemical reaction in which two molecules of carbonyl compounds (aldehydes or ketones) possessing alpha-hydrogen atoms combine to form a beta-hydroxyaldehyde or a beta-hydroxyketone (an aldol). This structural process represents the first stage of the aldol condensation and is fundamental in industrial organic synthesis and cellular metabolic pathways.
• Aldoxime — A nitrogenous organic compound belonging to the oxime class, formally or practically obtained through the condensation reaction of an aldehyde with hydroxylamine (NH2OH), having the general structure R-CH=N-OH. This type of oxime is characterized by the presence of a hydrogen atom bonded to the azomethine carbon, unlike ketoximes, serving as a valuable intermediate in nitrile and amide synthesis.
