CAS 60026-20-2: 2-Acetylpyrrolidine

Description: 2-Acetylpyrrolidine is a cyclic amine with the molecular formula C6H11NO, characterized by a five-membered ring structure containing a nitrogen atom. It features an acetyl group attached to the second carbon of the pyrrolidine ring, which contributes to its unique chemical properties. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor, often described as sweet or reminiscent of baked goods. It is soluble in organic solvents and exhibits moderate polarity due to the presence of the nitrogen atom and the carbonyl group from the acetyl moiety. 2-Acetylpyrrolidine is of interest in various fields, including organic synthesis and flavor chemistry, due to its potential applications as a flavoring agent and in the synthesis of more complex organic compounds. Additionally, it may exhibit biological activity, making it a subject of research in medicinal chemistry. Proper handling and storage are essential, as with many organic compounds, to ensure safety and stability.
