Acetone and acetic anhydride ((CH 3 C(O)) 2 O) upon the addition of boron trifluoride (BF 3) catalyst: [11] (CH 3 C(O)) 2 O + CH 3 C(O)CH 3 → CH 3 C(O)CH 2 C(O)CH 3 A second synthesis involves the base-catalyzed condensation (e.g., by sodium ethoxide CH 3 CH 2 O − Na + ) of acetone and ethyl acetate , followed by acidification of the sodium ...
A classic example for favoring the keto form can be seen in the equilibrium between vinyl alcohol and acetaldehyde (K = [enol]/[keto] ≈ 3 × 10 −7). In 1,3-diketones, such as acetylacetone (2,4-pentanedione), the enol form is more favored. The acid-catalyzed conversion of an enol to the keto form proceeds by proton transfer from O to carbon.

When heating 2,3,4-pentanetrione with oxygen, the oxidation products are diacetyl, acetic acid, water and carbon dioxide. [9] Alkalis convert it into acetic acid and formaldehyde. [8] 2,3,4-Pentanetrione does a condensation reaction with o-phenylenediamine to yield methyl-quinoxaline-2-methylketone, a heterocyclic dicycle. In this the carbon ...
1,3-Cyclopentanedione is an organic compound with the formula (CH 2) 3 (CO) 2. It is one of two isomeric cyclopentanediones, the other being 1,2-cyclopentanedione. The enol is predicted to be about 1-3 kcal/mol more stable than the diketo form. [1] The enol structure has been confirmed by X-ray crystallography. [2]
Levi and Zanetti extended the Knorr synthesis in 1894 to the use of acetylacetone (2,4-pentanedione) in reaction with ethyl 2-oximinoacetoacetate. The result was ethyl 4-acetyl-3,5-dimethylpyrrole-2-carboxylate, where "OEt" = R 1 = R 3 = Me, and R 2 = COOEt. [9] The 4-acetyl group could easily be converted to a 4-ethyl group by Wolff-Kishner ...
Acetylpropionyl, also known as acetyl propionyl or 2,3-pentanedione, [1] is an organic compound, specifically a diketone. [2] Uses for acetylpropionyl include as a: Solvent for cellulose acetate, paints, inks, and lacquers; Starting material for dyes, pesticides, and drugs
1,1,1-Trifluoroacetylacetone is the organofluorine compound with the formula CF 3 C(O)CH 2 C(O)CH 3. It is a colorless liquid. Like other 1,3-diketones, it is used as a precursor to heterocycles, e.g. pyrazoles, and metal chelates. [1] It is prepared by condensation of esters of trifluoroacetic acid with acetone. [2]
