The most characteristic reaction of aldehydes and ketones is nucleophilic addition to the carbon-oxygen double bond

Many other pairs of reagents that form cabocations (orcarbocationlike species) may be used as well

No addition of bromine No oxidation No hydroation Slow addition at high temperature and pressure
