ALPHA-PYRONE Chemical Properties, Uses, Production
Chemical Properties
clear yellow to brown liquid.
Polymerizes easily upon standing, particularly under alkaline conditions.
Very slightly soluble in water, soluble in
alcohol and oils.
Uses
2H-Pyran-2-one (a-Pyrone) is a heterocyclic building block. Photochemistry of 2H-pyran-2-one has been investigated by laser flash photolysis with infrared detection. Ketene and a bicyclic lactone were obtained as major photoproducts.
Definition
ChEBI: 2H-pyran-2-one is the simplest member of the class of 2-pyranones that is 2H-pyran with an oxo substituent at position 2.
