CLEAR SLIGHTLY YELLOW LIQUID | [Chemical Properties]
Colorless clear liquid. | [Occurrence]
Reported found in rue oil China (1.31%), rue flower oil Colombia (1.25%), rue oil Cuba (0.72%), ambrette seed
oil (0.10%), Croton flavens L. (Welensali) leaf oil Curacao (0.10%), cascarilla bark oil (0.06%) and violet flower absolute. | [Uses]
2-Decanone was used in the synthesis of brushed block copolymers via conjugation through an acid-labile hydrazone linker to poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(aspartate hydrazide) block copolymers; methyl ketones. 2-decanone used as a solvent and an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. It is also used in perfumes. | [Definition]
ChEBI: A methyl ketone that is decane in which the methylene hydrogens at position 2 are replaced by an oxo group. | [Production Methods]
2-Decanone is produced (many methods), e. g., by heating vapors of Nonoic acid and Acetic acid over Thorium oxide at 425° C. Also, by hydrogenation of Heptylideneacetone.
| [Aroma threshold values]
Medium-type strength odor, orange floral. | [General Description]
2-Decanone is a constituent of the essential oil of Ruta chalepensis L., which is used in the production of food, drugs and perfumery. | [Safety Profile]
Slightly toxic by ingestion. Aflammable liquid. When heated to decomposition it emitsacrid smoke and irritating vapors. |
