Produktinformation

• Name: Ethyl 4-oxohexanoate
• Marke: Biosynth
• Beschreibung: Ethyl 4-oxohexanoate is an organic compound that is a dicarboxylic acid. It is used in the synthesis of esters and lactones. Ethyl 4-oxohexanoate undergoes decarboxylation to produce diethyl succinate. This reaction can be accelerated by heating ethyl 4-oxohexanoate with a catalyst such as calcium oxide, giving evolution of carbon dioxide gas. Hydrolysis of ethyl 4-oxohexanoate produces ethyl acetate as well as ethanol, which are both volatile liquids at room temperature.
