nature
Liquid, with a pleasant minty smell. Melting point -58.2 ºC. Boiling point 130.6ºC. The relative density is 0.9509 (20ºC). Refractive index 1.4366. Flash point 29.82 ºC. Slightly soluble in water, can be miscible with ethanol, ether. Easy to polymerize, especially in the presence of acid.
preparation
The process is as follows: heating adipic acid to 285-295 ºC, generating cyclopentanone in the presence of barium hydroxide, distilling, extracting with ether, and then fractionating the finished product.
use
This product is an organic chemical raw material. It is the raw material of medicine and fragrance industry, can prepare a new flavor methyl hydrojasmonate, and is also used in rubber synthesis and biochemical research.
