Description:
2-Ethyl-1,3-cyclopentanedione, with the CAS number 823-36-9, is an organic compound characterized by its diketone structure, featuring two carbonyl (C=O) groups located at the 1 and 3 positions of a cyclopentane ring. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid and has a distinctive sweet, caramel-like odor. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic cyclopentane ring.
