5-Chloro-3-methylpentan-2-one (5CMP) is an alkaloid that can be found in plants. It has been shown to have bioactive properties, such as being anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer. 5CMP is a precursor to the natural products physovenine and indoline. These compounds are used as targets for drug discovery because of their biological activity. In addition, 5CMP is an intermediate in the synthesis of other biologically active molecules, such as aldehydes and hydrazines.
5CMP is synthesized by dehydration of 2-isopropenyl acetate, which undergoes iminium ion formation and subsequent rearrangement to form the desired product. The reaction yields hydrogen chloride gas, which can be removed by passing through a solution of potassium hydroxide or sodium bicarbonate prior to isolation.
