Structural formula of the adipate dianion. The anionic (HO 2 C(CH 2) 4 CO 2 −) and dianionic (− O 2 C(CH 2) 4 CO 2 −) forms of adipic acid are referred to as adipates. An adipate compound is a carboxylate salt or ester of the acid. Some adipate salts are used as acidity regulators, including: Sodium adipate (E number E356) Potassium ...
The dry distillation of calcium acetate to give acetone was reported by Charles Friedel in 1858 [3] and until World War I ketonization was the premier commercial method for its production. [4] Ketonic decarboxylation of propanoic acid over a manganese(II) oxide catalyst in a tube furnace affords 3-pentanone. [5]
Dry distillation (thermolysis and pyrolysis) is the heating of solid materials to produce gases that condense either into fluid products or into solid products. The term dry distillation includes the separation processes of destructive distillation and of chemical cracking, breaking down large hydrocarbon molecules into smaller hydrocarbon ...
Dry distillation is the heating of solid materials to produce gaseous products (which may condense into liquids or solids). The method may involve pyrolysis or thermolysis, or it may not (for instance, a simple mixture of ice and glass could be separated without breaking any chemical bonds, but organic matter contains a greater diversity of molecules, some of which are likely to break).
Within the catalytic distillation column, liquid reactants are catalyzed while concurrently being heated. As a result, the products immediately begin to vaporize and are separated from the initial solution. By catalyzing and heating the reactants at the same instant, the newly formed products are rapidly boiled out of the system.
Cyclopentobarbital, a drug made from cyclopentanone. Cyclopentanone is also used to make cyclopentamine, the pesticide pencycuron, and pentethylcyclanone. [5] It is also used as a precursor to cubane-1,4-dicarboxylate, which is used to synthesize other substituted cubanes, such as the high explosives heptanitrocubane and octanitrocubane. [6]

Calcium propionate is used in bakery products as a mold inhibitor, typically at 0.1–0.4% [5] (though animal feed may contain up to 1%). Mold contamination is considered a serious problem amongst bakers, and conditions commonly found in baking present near-optimal conditions for mold growth.
