Product Information

• Name: 2,2,6,6-Tetramethylcyclohexan-1-one
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 2,2,6,6-Tetramethylcyclohexan-1-one is a chemical compound with the molecular formula CHO. It is a colorless liquid that boils around 100°C and has a strong odor. 2,2,6,6-Tetramethylcyclohexan-1-one can be used in the dehydrogenation of alicyclic compounds to form alkenes. The reaction proceeds by attack of the intermediate on the double bond and elimination of two hydrogen atoms from an adjacent methyl group. In this process, one molecule of water is also produced. This reaction mechanism can be postulated for homologues as well.
