Description

4-Heptanone, also known as ethyl butyl ketone, is a colorless liquid with a pungent odor. It is a synthetic compound not commonly found in nature. It is primarily used as a solvent, especially in the production of paints, lacquers, and resins. 4-Heptanone can be synthesized through various methods, including the oxidation of 4-heptanol or the condensation of ethyl acetate with butyl bromide. Due to its solvent properties, 4-heptanone is studied for its applications in chemical manufacturing and industrial processes. It is also used as an intermediate in the synthesis of other organic compounds. '
