Acetal: Examples, Overview & Acetalization and ketalization

In organic chemistry, an acetal is a functional group with the connectivity R2C(OR')2. Here, the R groups can be organic fragments (a carbon atom, with arbitrary other atoms attached to that) or hydrogen, while the R' groups must be organic fragments, not hydrogen. The two R' groups can be equivalent to each other (a "symmetric acetal") or not (a "mixed…
