Structure of 2,7-Dimethyloctane-3,6-dione, CAS 51513-41-8 — Structure · C10H18O2

CAS number: 51513-41-8
Molecular formula: C₁₀H₁₈O₂
Molecular weight: 170.25 g/mol
Standard packing: 1kg / 25kg / 100kg

2,7-Dimethyloctane-3,6-dione (CAS 51513-41-8) is a ketone building block of formula C10H18O2, 170.25 g/mol, packed in 1kg / 25kg / 100kg.

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 C7 changes how the chain packs, which shows up in melting behaviour and in the solubility of the free material.

The formula C10H18O2 resolves to 10 carbons with 2 oxygens. A 10-carbon chain sits between volatility and lipophilicity, which is the range most often used when a fragment has to stay in the organic phase without being waxy.

Handling and storage

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

Ordering

Supplied in 1kg / 25kg / 100kg; a gram-scale sample is quoted against the same specification, so the analysis seen at sample stage is the analysis of the kilo lot.
