2,5-Hexanedione reacts with lysine residues in axonal proteins by Schiff base formation followed by cyclization to give pyrroles. Oxidation of the pyrrole residues then causes cross-linking and denaturation of proteins, which perturbs axonal transport and function and causes damage to nerve cells.
2-Hexanone (methyl butyl ketone, MBK) is a ketone used as a general solvent and in paints. It dissolves cellulose nitrate, vinyl polymers and copolymers, and natural and synthetic resins. It dissolves cellulose nitrate, vinyl polymers and copolymers, and natural and synthetic resins.
The following is a list of chemicals published as a requirement of Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, commonly known as California Proposition 65, that are "known to the state to cause cancer or reproductive toxicity" as of January 3, 2020. [1]
2,5-Hexanediol is an organic compound with the formula CH 3 CH(OH)CH 2 CH 2 CH(OH)CH 3. It is both a glycol and a secondary alcohol. [1] It is a colorless water-soluble viscous liquid. [2] [3] [4] The chemical properties are well understood and have been extensively reported and studied. [5]
This reaction is an important approach to the formation of carbon-carbon bonds in organic molecules containing ring systems. As an example, under strong basic conditions (e.g. sodium hydroxide), hexane-2,5-dione (compound A in Figure 1) can cyclize via intramolecular aldol reaction to form the 3-methylcyclopent-2-en-1-one (compound B).
1,2-Cyclohexanedione is an organic compound with the formula (CH 2) 4 (CO) 2. It is one of three isomeric cyclohexanediones. It is a colorless compound that is soluble in a variety of organic solvents. It can be prepared by oxidation of cyclohexanone by selenium dioxide. [1] The enol is about 1 kcal/mol more stable than the diketo form. [2]
Dimedone is an organic compound with the formula (CH 3) 2 C(CH 2) 2 (CO) 2 (CH 2). Classified as a cyclic diketone, it is a derivative of 1,3-cyclohexanedione. It is a white solid that is soluble in water, as well as ethanol and methanol. It once was used as a reagent to test for the aldehyde functional group.
General chemical structure of a semicarbazone Nitrofurazone is a semicarbazone used as an antiseptic. In organic chemistry, a semicarbazone is a derivative of imines formed by a condensation reaction between a ketone or aldehyde and semicarbazide.
