Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Hazard]
Toxic by ingestion and inhalation, strong
irritant. Flammable, moderate fire risk. | [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
| [Chemical Properties]
colourless liquid | [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. | [Definition]
ChEBI: 3-hexanone is a dialkyl ketone that is hexane in which the two methylene protons at position 3 have been replaced by an oxo group. It has a role as a human urinary metabolite, a human xenobiotic metabolite, an insect attractant, a plant metabolite and a bacterial xenobiotic metabolite. It derives from a hydride of a hexane. | [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 | [Aroma threshold values]
Detection: 41 to 81 ppb | [Taste threshold values]
Taste characteristics at 30 ppm: sweet, fruity and waxy with rum notes | [Synthesis Reference(s)]
