Product Information
Methyl 4-oxohexanoate is an organic compound that is synthesised from acetone and formaldehyde. It has a high activation energy, which means that it requires a lot of energy to start the reaction. Methyl 4-oxohexanoate can be used as a copolymerization agent due to its ability to react with many different types of monomers. It is also used in the synthesis of pheromones and as a crystallographic ligand. The carbonyl group in this molecule reacts with the alkene group in other molecules, creating an intermediate that is then oxidized by air or heat, eventually forming a carbonyl oxide. This mechanistic reaction time for this process is about 1 minute at room temperature and 100 minutes at 60 degrees Celsius. The viscosity of this compound is constant when heated above its melting point.
