Chemical Properties
LIGHT BEIGE TO TAN CRYSTALLINE POWDER
Uses
2-Methyl-1,3-cyclopentanedione was used as a reactant in the identification and characterization of benzil (diphenylethane-1,2-dione) analogues as inhibitors of mammalian carboxylesterases.
Uses
2-Methyl-1,3-cyclopentanedione hs been used to explore deoxycholic acid (DCA) induced changes in cell signaling. DCA is a secondary bile acid implicated in numerous pathological conditions. It has also been used in the synthesis of (-)-curcumanolide A and (-)-curcumalactone by aldol-lactonization.

765-69-5
The general procedure for the synthesis of 2-methyl-1,3-cyclopentanedione from 1,3-cyclopentanedione and tert-butyl peroxybenzoate was as follows: 1,3-cyclopentanedione (0.098 g, 1 mmol), tert-butyl peroxybenzoate (0.58 g, 3 mmol), CuCl (0.01 g, 0.1 mmol), and 2 mL of acetic acid were added to a reaction flask, and the reaction was carried out at 120 °C Reaction at 120°C. The progress of the reaction was monitored by thin layer chromatography (TLC) until the reaction was complete. After completion of the reaction, the crude product was purified by column chromatography (eluent ratio of petroleum ether:ethyl acetate = 40:1) to afford the target product 2-methyl-1,3-cyclopentanedione in 68% yield.
