CAS 1193-70-0: 2-propylcyclopentanone

Description: 2-Propylcyclopentanone is a cyclic ketone characterized by a cyclopentane ring with a propyl group and a carbonyl (C=O) functional group. Its molecular structure features a five-membered carbon ring, which contributes to its unique physical and chemical properties. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor. It is moderately soluble in water and more soluble in organic solvents, reflecting its hydrophobic nature due to the presence of the cyclopentane ring and the propyl group. The presence of the carbonyl group makes it a potential candidate for various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic addition and oxidation. 2-Propylcyclopentanone is used in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of other chemical compounds. Safety data indicates that it should be handled with care, as it may cause irritation upon contact with skin or eyes and should be used in well-ventilated areas to avoid inhalation of vapors.
