4,4-Dimethoxy-2-butanone

Description:
4,4-Dimethoxy-2-butanone, with the CAS number 5436-21-5, is an organic compound characterized by its ketone functional group and two methoxy groups attached to the butanone structure. It typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a sweet, pleasant odor. This compound is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether, but its solubility in water is limited due to its hydrophobic hydrocarbon chain. The presence of the methoxy groups enhances its reactivity, making it useful in various chemical syntheses, including as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its boiling point and density can vary, but it generally exhibits moderate volatility. Safety data indicates that it should be handled with care, as it may cause irritation upon contact with skin or eyes. Proper storage in a cool, dry place away from strong oxidizing agents is recommended to maintain its stability and prevent degradation.
