Description

2-Methyl-3-heptanone is a chemical compound that has been detected in the environment, but is not known to have any adverse effects on human health. It is produced by the hydrolysis of the ester bond of 2-methylhexanoic acid, which is found in animal and vegetable fats. 2-Methyl-3-heptanone can be used as an analytical reagent to detect geosmin in water samples. This chemical can also be used for sample preparation for gas chromatography (GC) analysis. Reaction products from GC analysis can be identified using gas chromatography with electron capture detection (GC/ECD). Solid phase microextraction (SPME) can be used to extract 2-methyl-3-heptanone from sample matrices such as soil or water. SPME involves inserting a sorbent material into the matrix and then extracting the analyte from this material using a solvent vapor. Crotonic acid, which
