How are the spectra of cyclopentanone spectra measured?

Notice: Except where noted, spectra from this collection were measured on dispersive instruments, often in carefully selected solvents, and hence may differ in detail from measurements on FTIR instruments or in other chemical environments. More information on the manner in which spectra in this collection were collected can be found here.

What happens if you put cyclopentanone in water?

Cyclopentanone may be ignited by heat, sparks, or flames (flash point: 87 deg F, closed cup), and is dangerously reactive with oxidizing materials. Its heavier-than-air vapor may travel to a source of ignition and flash back, or accumulate to explosive concentrations in confined spaces such as sewers.

Are there any other names for cyclopentanone?

Other names: Adipic ketone; Adipinketon; Dumasin; Ketocyclopentane; Ketopentamethylene; UN 2245; NSC 4122 Permanent link for this species. Use this link for bookmarking this species for future reference. NIST subscription sites provide data under the NIST Standard Reference Data Program, but require an annual fee to access.

What is the KOC value for cyclopentanone?

Based on an estimated water solubility of 9175 mg/L(1), a Koc value of 30 for cyclopentanone has been calculated from a regression-derived equation(1,SRC). This Koc value indicates cyclopentanone should be very highly mobile in soil(2).

What is the role of cyclopentanone in the Maillard reaction?

Cyclopentanone is a cyclic ketone that consists of cyclopentane bearing a single oxo substituent. It has a role as a Maillard reaction product.

What does the flash point of cyclopentanone look like?

Cyclopentanone appears as a clear colorless liquid with a petroleum-like odor. Flash point 87°F. Less dense than water and insoluble in water. Vapors heavier than air.
