6-Chloro-2-hexanone Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

clear yellow to brown liquid

Uses

6-Chloro-2-hexanone in the synthesis of the keto analogs began with 6-chloro-2-hexanone. Substituted 7-(oxoalkyl)theophyllines were synthesized by alkylation of the respective theophyllines with 6-chloro-2-hexanone.
