3-Hexanone Chemical Properties,Uses,Production

Description

May be synthesized from organo-mercury compounds; by dehydrogenation of 3-hexanol in the presence of Ni-zinc oxide-phosphate catalyst; by hydrogenolysis of 2-ethylfuran; by passing (5-furylpropionic acid (or 2-furanpropionic acid) over 5% Pt-C catalyst to 250 to 300°C; by two patented processes.

Chemical Properties

3-Hexanone has an ethereal, grape, wine-like odor

Occurrence

Reported found in coffee and, as a component in the volatile by-product developed during the catalytic hydrogenation of soybean oil using Ni catalysts; in the scent of green vegetable Nezara viridula. Also reported found in lime peel oil, black currants, peach, pineapple, fried potato, Parmesan cheese, butter, milk, eggs, beef, fried pork, beer, rum, cocoa, coffee, filberts, passion fruit, plumcot, rose apple, mango, lemon balm, crab, Cape gooseberry and sweet grass oil.

Uses

3-Hexanone can be used as an analytical standard for the determination of the analyte in foods, and alcoholic beverages by liquid chromatography (LC) based methods.

Preparation

From organo-mercury compounds; by dehydrogenation of 3-hexanol in the presence of Ni-zinc oxide-phosphate catalyst; by hydrogenolysis of 2-ethylfuran; by passing β-furylpropionic acid (or 2-furanpropionic acid) over 5% Pt-C catalyst from 250 to 300°C; by two patented processes

General Description

3-Hexanone, a volatile dialkyl ketone, is a well-known flavor and aroma ingredient present in food and beverage products.

Hazard

Toxic by ingestion and inhalation, strong irritant. Flammable, moderate fire risk.
