4,4-Dimethyl-3-oxopentanal

Description:
4,4-Dimethyl-3-oxopentanal, with the CAS number 23459-13-4, is an organic compound characterized by its aldehyde functional group and a ketone group within its structure. This compound features a five-carbon chain with two methyl groups attached to the fourth carbon, contributing to its branched structure. The presence of both the aldehyde and ketone functionalities suggests that it may exhibit reactivity typical of both functional groups, including nucleophilic addition reactions. The compound is likely to be a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature, with a distinctive odor typical of aldehydes. Its solubility in organic solvents, such as ethanol and ether, is expected, while its solubility in water may be limited due to the hydrophobic nature of the alkyl groups. 4,4-Dimethyl-3-oxopentanal may find applications in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of more complex molecules, and could serve as an intermediate in various chemical reactions. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with any chemical substance.
