| 3,3,5-Trimethylcyclohexanone Usage And Synthesis |
Chemical Properties |
Colorless oily liquid. B.P. 167°C. Very slightly soluble in water, soluble in alcohol and oils.
| Uses | 3,3,5-Trimethylcyclohexanone is used as a raw material for chemical syntheses e,g. monomer for specialty polycarbonate (Apec®); peroxides used as polymerization initiator. It is also used in coatings and paints to provide improved leveling, gloss and surface finish. | Uses | 3,3,5-Trimethylcyclohexanone is used as a reactant in the selective catalytic hydrogenation of organic compounds in supercritical fluids. | Preparation |
3,3,5-Trimethylcyclohexanone is produced by catalytic hydrogenation of iso-Phorone.

The reaction process was monitored by thin layer chromatography (TLC). After complete conversion of the isophorone, the catalyst was removed by simple filtration and the solvent was subsequently evaporated under reduced pressure to obtain pure 3,3,5-trimethylcyclohexanone. | References | [1] Tetrahedron, 1994, vol. 50, # 4, p. 973 - 978 [2] Tetrahedron, 1994, vol. 50, # 4, p. 973 - 978 [3] Chemical Communications, 2005, # 25, p. 3207 - 3209 [4] Green Chemistry, 2011, vol. 13, # 5, p. 1133 - 1137 [5] RSC Advances, 2013, vol. 3, # 36, p. 15608 - 15612 |
