DMC is still safer than acetone, methyl acetate and methyl ethyl ketone from a flammability point of view. The National Center for Sustainable Transportation recommends limiting exposure by inhalation to less than 100 ppm over an 8-hour work day, which is similar to that of a number of common industrial solvents (toluene, methyl ethyl ketone). [20]
The systematic IUPAC name is not always the preferred IUPAC name, for example, lactic acid is a common, and also the preferred, name for what systematic rules call 2-hydroxypropanoic acid. This list is ordered by the number of carbon atoms in a carboxylic acid.
In organic chemistry, a ketone / ˈ k iː t oʊ n / is an organic compound with the structure R−C(=O)−R', where R and R' can be a variety of carbon-containing substituents. Ketones contain a carbonyl group −C(=O)− (a carbon-oxygen double bond C=O). The simplest ketone is acetone (where R and R' is methyl), with the formula (CH 3) 2 CO ...

Structure of an η 2-formaldehyde complex. Transition metal complexes of aldehydes and ketones describes coordination complexes with aldehyde (RCHO) and ketone (R 2 CO) ligands. Because aldehydes and ketones are common, the area is of fundamental interest. Some reactions that are useful in organic chemistry involve such complexes.

Acetone (2-propanone or dimethyl ketone) is an organic compound with the formula (CH 3) 2 CO. [22] It is the simplest and smallest ketone (>C=O).It is a colorless, highly volatile, and flammable liquid with a characteristic pungent odour, very reminiscent of the smell of pear drops.
