Product Information
Name:2,2-Dimethylpentan-3-one
Brand:Biosynth
Description:2,2-Dimethylpentan-3-one is an enolate that is used as a synthetic intermediate in the synthesis of aldehydes. The optical and stereoselective properties of 2,2-dimethylpentan-3-one are due to its chiral center, which can be either R or S depending on the substituent effects. In this compound, the substituents are chloride and methoxy groups. These substituents have opposite effects on the reactivity in the molecule's enolate form. When chloride is present, it occupies an axial position with respect to the carbonyl group and therefore has a stabilizing effect on the molecule; this leads to lower reactivity. Methoxy groups occupy equatorial positions and have a destabilizing effect on the molecule by withdrawing electron density from its carbonyl group; this leads to higher reactivity.
