Applications

Dimedone is commonly used as a versatile reagent in organic synthesis to form cyclic compounds and is especially valuable in the synthesis of heterocyclic compounds.

 

Description

Dimedone is an organic compound with the formula (CH 3) 2C(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.

 

Preparation

The ozone addition product is heated in the presence of acids to a temperature of 20 DEG to 150 DEG C. The 3,3-dimethyl-5-oxo-hexanoic acid ester is isolated thereby. The ester is then converted in a further step into dimedone by treatment of the ester with an alkali alcoholate in an anhydrous milieu.

 

Chemical Properties

Dimedone is a cyclic diketone with chemical properties that include the ability to undergo condensation reactions, form chelates with metal ions, and act as a versatile building block in organic synthesis.

 

Definition

Dimedone is a cyclic diketone compound with the molecular formula C6H10O2, commonly used in organic synthesis and chemical reactions.

    Dimedone is a cyclic diketone used in organic chemistry to determine whether a compound contains an aldehyde group. Cyclohexanediones in general can be used as catalysts in the formation of transition-metal complexes. Other uses include applications in colorimetry, crystallography, luminescence and spectrophotometric analysis. It can also be used for chemistry involving organic compounds of low electrical resistance.
