5-methyl-3-methylidenehexan-2-one

Description:

5-Methyl-3-methylidenehexan-2-one, with the CAS number 1187-87-7, is an organic compound characterized by its ketone functional group. It features a six-carbon chain with a methyl group at the fifth carbon and a methylidene group at the third carbon, contributing to its structural complexity. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor, often associated with fruity or floral notes. It is soluble in organic solvents and has limited solubility in water. The presence of the ketone group makes it reactive, particularly in nucleophilic addition reactions. Additionally, it can participate in various chemical transformations, including oxidation and reduction processes. Due to its unique structure, it may be used in the synthesis of other organic compounds or as a flavoring agent in the food industry. Safety data indicates that, like many organic solvents, it should be handled with care, as it may pose health risks upon inhalation or skin contact.
