2-Pentanone or methyl propyl ketone (MPK) is a ketone and solvent of minor importance. It is comparable to methyl ethyl ketone , but has a lower solvency and is more expensive. [ 5 ] It occurs naturally in Nicotiana tabacum (Tobacco) [ 6 ] and blue cheese as a metabolic product of Penicillium mold growth.
Pentanone may refer to the following ketones containing five carbon atoms: 2-Pentanone (Methyl propyl ketone, MPK) 3-Methyl-2-butanone (Methyl isopropyl ketone, MIPK)
Methyl isobutyl ketone (MIBK, 4-methylpentan-2-one) is an organic compound with the condensed chemical formula (CH 3) 2 CHCH 2 C(O)CH 3. This ketone is a colourless liquid that is used as a solvent for gums, resins, paints, varnishes, lacquers, and nitrocellulose.

If the oxygen is bonded to the middle carbon, the locant is 3. If the oxygen is bonded to an atom on either side (adjacent to an end carbon), the locant is 2 or 4; given the choice here, where the carbons are exactly equivalent, the lower number is always chosen. So the locant is either 2 or 3 in this molecule.
Perfluoro(2-methyl-3-pentanone) is a fluorinated ketone with the structural formula CF 3 CF 2 C(=O)CF(CF 3) 2, a fully-fluorinated analog of ethyl isopropyl ketone. It is used as an electronics coolant liquid and fire protection fluid sold commercially by 3M under brand names such as Novec 1230, Novec 649, and FK-5-1-12. It is also known as ...
The McLafferty rearrangement is a reaction observed in mass spectrometry during the fragmentation or dissociation of organic molecules. It is sometimes found that a molecule containing a keto-group undergoes β-cleavage, with the gain of the γ-hydrogen atom, as first reported by Anthony Nicholson working in the Division of Chemical Physics at the CSIRO in Australia.

Cyclopentanone is common precursor to fragrances, especially those related to jasmine and jasmone.Examples include 2-pentyl- and 2-heptylcyclopentanone. [4] It is a versatile synthetic intermediate, being a precursor to cyclopentobarbital.
