Hemiacetals are a useful functional group in synthetic chemistry, and although their straight- chain forms are not often found in drug structures, cyclic forms are relatively common. The molecule 5-hydroxyhexanal (1) is an example of a molecule whose straight-chain form is in equilibrium with a 6-membered cyclic form (2). H* LHOT 1 OH
