| ACETOXYACETONE Usage And Synthesis |
Chemical Properties | Clear pale yellow to amber liquid | Uses | Acetoxyacetone is an building block in the synthesis of various pharmaceutical and organic compounds. | Definition | ChEBI: Acetoxyacetone is a carboxylic ester and a ketone. | Synthesis Reference(s) | The Journal of Organic Chemistry, 57, p. 4263, 1992 DOI: 10.1021/jo00041a036 | Purification Methods | Distil it in a vacuum, then redistil it at atmospheric pressure. It is miscible with H2O, but is slowly decomposed by it. Store it in a dry atmosphere. The 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazone has m 115-115.5o (from CHCl3/hexane).
