An aldol condensation is an organic reaction in which an enol or an enolate ion reacts with a carbonyl compound to form a Î²-hydroxyaldehyde or Î²-hydroxyketone, followed by a dehydration to give a conjugated enone. Aldol condensations are important in organic synthesis, providing a good way to form carbonâcarbon bonds.For example, the Robinson annulation reaction sequence features an aldol condensation; the Wieland-Miescher ketone product is an important starting material for many organic syntheses.owever, the aldol reaction is not formally a condensation reaction because it does not involve the loss of a small molecule. The reaction between an aldehyde/ketone and a carbonyl compound lacking an alpha-hydrogen (cross aldol condensation) is called the Claisen-Schmidt condensation.

The 13 NFL teams that have never won a Super Bowl. There are still 13 franchises that have never secured a Super Bowl championship, including four teams who have never even made it to the big game -- the Cleveland Browns, Detroit Lions, Houston Texans and Jacksonville Jaguars. After winning Super Bowl 50, the Denver Broncos became the ninth franchise to win at least three Super Bowls. The Atlanta Falcons would attain the franchise's first Super Bowl championship with a win on Sunday and effectively remove themselves from the list of franchises that have never won a Super Bowl.
