Product Description of 4-Methyl-2-Pentanone CAS#108-10-1

4-Methyl-2-pentanone (methyl isobutyl ketone) is a widely used reagent in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries. It serves as a solvent for various applications, including the separation and recovery of nuclear fission products and scientific research experiments. The market-grade 4-methyl-2-pentanone typically has a purity of ≤99% and contains trace amounts of alcohol, acidic substances, water, and other impurities. It is also used as a solvent for nitrocellulose, lacquer, and certain polymers and resins. In addition, it acts as a reactant in the synthesis of 2-(1-hydroxy-3-methylbutyne)-1H-indene-1,3(2H)-dione.


Product Application of 4-Methyl-2-Pentanone CAS#108-10-1

4-Methyl-2-pentanone is used as an intermediate in the production of medicines and dyes. It plays a key role in the synthesis of the pesticide Mitosil, which, produced from o-chlorobenzaldehyde, is effective in controlling mites on dry crops and fruit trees. Additionally, o-chlorobenzaldehyde can undergo oximation to form o-chlorobenzaldehyde oxime, which can then be further chlorinated to obtain more pharmaceutical intermediates.
