3,6-Octanedione, 2,7-dimethyl-

Description:
3,6-Octanedione, 2,7-dimethyl- is an organic compound characterized by its diketone structure, featuring two carbonyl (C=O) groups located at the 3rd and 6th positions of an octane chain, with additional methyl groups at the 2nd and 7th positions. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor, often associated with a sweet or fruity scent. It is soluble in organic solvents and exhibits moderate solubility in water due to its hydrophobic octane chain and polar carbonyl groups. The presence of the diketone functionality allows for potential reactivity in various chemical reactions, such as condensation and oxidation. 3,6-Octanedione, 2,7-dimethyl- may be utilized in the synthesis of other organic compounds and can serve as a flavoring agent or fragrance in certain applications. Safety data indicates that, like many diketones, 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.
