2-Octanone Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Synthesis

1-Octyne (7.5 g) and formic acid (100 mL) were heated in an oil bath at 100 ºC until all starting material was consumed. The progress of the reaction was monitored by GC analysis of the reaction solution. Quantitative GC analysis at the end of the reaction (6 h) indicated 92% yield of 2-octanone. The cooled reaction mixture was taken up with CH2Cl2 (170 mL), and the solution was washed with water, sodium carbonate solution, and water, dried over MgSO4, and evaporated in vacuo. The residue was distilled (bp 171–173 ºC) to give 2-octanone (7.42 g, 85%).

Description

2-octanone is a kind of natural ketone found in many sources such as coco, baked peanuts, potato, cheese, beer, banana and oranges. It can be used as a flavor and fragrance ingredient. It is used in the field of fiber, medicine, pesticides and spices for the synthesis of fiber oil, defoamer and the preparation of surfactants, coal flotation agent.

Description

2-Octanone has a floral and bitter, green, fruity (unripe apple) odor with a bitter camphoraceous taste. May be synthesized by the oxidation of methyl hexyl carbinol with K2Cr2O7 and sulfuric acid; also by oxidation of 2-octanol over zinc oxide at 330 - 340°C.

Chemical Properties

2-Octanone has a floral and bitter, green, fruity (unripe apple) odor and bitter, camphoraceous taste.

Chemical Properties

Colorless liquid; pleasant odor; cam-phor taste. Insoluble in water; solublein alcohol, hydrocarbons, ether, esters, etc. Com-bustible.

Occurrence

Reported found in apple, apricot, banana, cranberry, grape, raisin, papaya, peach, raspberry, strawberry, leek, peas, clove, wheat bread, many cheeses, butter, milk, cooked egg, yogurt, caviar, fatty fish, meats, beer, hop oil beer, cognac, rum, grape wines, cocoa, coffee, tea, roasted filberts and peanuts, pecans, potato chips, oats, soybean, olive, beans, walnut, trassi, mushroom, fig, rice, buckwheat, quince, sweet corn, corn oil, malt, wort, krill, Bourbon vanilla, mountain papaya, shrimp, crab, crayfish, clam, truffle, maté and mastic gum oil.

Uses

2-Octanone is used in perfumes, high-boiling solvent, especially for epoxy resin coatings and in leather finishes. It is used in flavoring, odorant. It can act as antiblushing agent for nitrocellulose lacquers.

Uses

Perfumes, high-boiling solvent, especiallyfor epoxy resin coatings, leather finishes, flavor-ing, odorant, antiblushing agent for nitrocelluloselacquers.

Uses

2-Octanone may be used as an analytical reference standard for the quantification of the analyte in sugar-cane spirits and rum samples and whey protein concentrate using chromatography based techniques.

Definition

ChEBI: A methyl ketone that is octane substituted by an oxo group at position 2.

Production Methods

2-Octanone can be produced by oxidation of methyl hexyl carbinol, 2-octanol, or 1-octene or by reductive condensation of acetone with pentanol. Commercial samples can have a purity of 98%.

Preparation

By oxidation of methyl hexyl carbinol with K2Cr2O7 and sulfuric acid; also by oxidation of 2-octanol over zinc oxide at 330 to 340°C.

Aroma threshold values

Detection: 41 to 62 ppb

Taste threshold values

Taste characteristics at 10 ppm: dairy, waxy, cheese, woody, mushroom and yeast.
