:3-methoxycyclohexanone
Description:
3-Methoxycyclohexanone is an organic compound characterized by its cyclohexanone structure with a methoxy group (-OCH3) attached to the third carbon of the cyclohexane ring. It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pleasant odor, commonly used as an intermediate in organic synthesis and in the production of various chemical compounds. The presence of the methoxy group enhances its solubility in organic solvents and contributes to its reactivity in nucleophilic substitution and electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions. The compound has a moderate boiling point and is relatively stable under standard conditions, although it should be handled with care due to potential irritant properties. Its applications extend to the fragrance industry and as a solvent in various chemical processes. As with many organic compounds, proper safety measures should be observed when handling 3-methoxycyclohexanone, including the use of personal protective equipment to avoid inhalation or skin contact.

3-Methoxy-cyclohexanone
CAS:<p>3-Methoxy-cyclohexanone is a chemical that can be synthesized from 3-methoxy-cyclohexanol. It is used as a starting material for the synthesis of other chemicals such as cyclopentanol, cyclohexene, and cyclohexanol. 3-Methoxy-cyclohexanone can be produced by heating the alcohol in solvents with a palladium catalyst and irradiating the mixture. This process produces an excellent yield. The reaction can also be catalyzed by amines or metal complexes. When heated, 3-methoxy-cyclohexanone isomerizes to produce 3-methyl-cyclohexanone, which can then undergo reductive amination to produce 2-(3'-methylphenyl)propanal.</p>Formula:C7H12O2Purity:Min. 95%Molecular weight:128.17 g/mol
