Di-tert-butyl ketone

Description:
Di-tert-butyl ketone, with the CAS number 815-24-7, is an organic compound characterized by its structure featuring two tert-butyl groups attached to a carbonyl group. This compound is a colorless liquid at room temperature and is known for its relatively low volatility and high boiling point compared to simpler ketones. Di-tert-butyl ketone is typically used as a solvent and in various chemical syntheses due to its stability and non-reactive nature. It exhibits moderate polarity, making it soluble in organic solvents while being less soluble in water. The presence of bulky tert-butyl groups imparts steric hindrance, which influences its reactivity and interactions with other molecules. Additionally, di-tert-butyl ketone is considered to have low toxicity, but standard safety precautions should be observed when handling it. Its applications extend to the fields of organic chemistry and materials science, where it serves as a precursor or intermediate in the synthesis of more complex compounds.
