how can aldehydes be synthesized from primary alcohols   with PCC  
🗑
what can aldehydes be oxidized or reduced too   oxidized to carboxylic acids, reduced too secondary alcohols  
🗑
what can ketones be oxidized or reduced too   cannot be oxidized further, can be reduced to secondary alcohols  
🗑
what is significant about the enol form   it can act as a nucleophile, but it is not prevalent in solution  
🗑
where will nucleophiles typically add to the carbonyl carbon   to the electropositive carbonyl carbon  
🗑
Wittig reaction   swaps out C=O for C=C  
🗑
