CAS 3720-22-7
:3,6-dimethyltetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-one
Description:
3,6-Dimethyltetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-one, with the CAS number 3720-22-7, is a cyclic organic compound characterized by its six-membered ring structure containing both oxygen and carbon atoms. This compound features a tetrahydropyran ring, which is saturated and includes a carbonyl group (keto) at the second position, contributing to its classification as a lactone. The presence of two methyl groups at the 3 and 6 positions enhances its hydrophobic characteristics and can influence its reactivity and interactions with other molecules. Typically, this compound is colorless to pale yellow and may have a pleasant, sweet odor, making it of interest in flavor and fragrance applications. Its solubility in organic solvents and limited solubility in water reflects its non-polar characteristics. Additionally, 3,6-dimethyltetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-one may exhibit biological activity, which can be explored for potential applications in pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. As with many organic compounds, safety data should be consulted for handling and usage guidelines.
