5,5-Dimethyl-1,3-cyclohexanedione

CAS: 126-81-8

Dimedone is a chemical compound that is a white solid that is soluble in water. It reacts with amines to form acid and is used as an analytical reagent in the determination of amines. Dimedone has been shown to react with metal ions, such as sodium and potassium, to form metal chelates. It also has antimicrobial properties, inhibiting the growth of bacteria by binding to cell membranes and disrupting their function. The reaction mechanism for this process may be due to steric interactions between dimedone and the hydroxyl group on the cell membrane or intramolecular hydrogen bonding between dimedone molecules and hydroxyl groups on adjacent cell membranes.
