General description

2-Hexanone (MBK, 2-Oxohexane) is a volatile organic compound, that exists as a clear, colorless liquid with a sharp odor. It dissolves very easily in water, and can evaporate easily into the air as a vapor. It is occasionally found as a volatile component of normal human biofluids. It was used as an industrial hexacarbon solvent, but is no longer used or made owing to its neurotoxic nature leading to various human diseases.

Application

2-Hexanone may be used as an analytical standard for the determination of the analyte in biological samples, starch-based polymers, moldy building materials, and alcoholic matrices by various chromatography techniques.[1][2][3]
