2,2-Dimethyl-1,3-dioxan-5-one is supplied as a ketone building block (CAS 74181-34-3, C6H10O3) in kilogram lots.

A ketone is a branch point rather than a terminus: alkylation, condensation and reduction to the secondary alcohol all start at the carbonyl carbon. The methyl branch at C2 changes how the chain packs, which shows up in melting behaviour and in the solubility of the free material.

The formula C6H10O3 resolves to 6 carbons with 3 oxygens. Short-chain entries of this size are volatile enough that headspace and packing matter: the lot is shipped in sealed units and opened in a fume hood.

Handling and storage

Ketones are stored closed and dry; enolisable ketones are checked for colour before use.

Ordering

Shipped in 1kg / 25kg / 100kg units with a batch certificate of analysis and a GHS safety data sheet; a smaller sample can be quoted separately. Assay is lot specific and stated on the certificate; no catalogue grade is implied where no assay is held on file.
