Product Information

• Name: Spiro[2.3]hexan-5-one
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Spiro[2.3]hexan-5-one is an organic compound that belongs to the class of flavonoids. It is a cyclic ketone with two hydroxyl groups in the 5 and 6 positions and one hydrogen atom in the 3 position. Spiro[2.3]hexan-5-one has been shown to have antioxidant activity as well as inhibitory effects on bacterial growth and biofilm formation. Spiro[2.3]hexan-5-one is also used for coatings, adhesives, and plastics, due to its hydrophobic properties and ability to form films at room temperature without the addition of solvents or plasticizers. Spiro[2.3]hexan-5-one can be synthesized from sodium hydroxide solution in a supercritical state or using techniques such as gas phase reactions or microwave irradiation with broadband radiation sources, which are sustainable processes that do not produce greenhouse gases or other harmful
