Product Information
Name:Ethyl 5-oxoheptanoate
Brand:Biosynth
Description:Ethyl 5-oxoheptanoate is a clear, colorless liquid that can be synthesized by reacting benzene with acetone. The synthesis of ethyl 5-oxoheptanoate is an example of a Friedel-Crafts reaction. This chemical is soluble in organic solvents such as acetone and cyclohexane and has low toxicity. It can be used as a reagent for the preparation of esters from alcohols, phenols, or carboxylic acids. Ethyl 5-oxoheptanoate can also be used to prepare resorcinol, which is a precursor to polymers and dyes, by hydrogenation of the molecule. Preparative methods are often used to produce this product because it has limited solubility in water.
