Alkandiale
The alkanedials form a subgroup of the aldehydes or dialdehydes . They are derived in name and structure from the alkanes and contain two aldehyde groups . They carry straight or branched alkyl groups . They do not contain any other heteroatoms or multiple bonds .
If instead it only contains one aldehyde group, one speaks of alkanals .
