1,3-Cyclohexanedione（Cat No.:R047790）is a cyclic diketone with the molecular formula C₆H₈O₂, consisting of a cyclohexane ring bearing two ketone groups at the 1 and 3 positions. It typically appears as a white to off-white crystalline solid and is moderately soluble in water and organic solvents. This compound is a valuable building block in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of heterocycles, pharmaceuticals, and agrochemicals. It readily undergoes enolization and condensation reactions due to the activated methylene group between the two carbonyls. Proper storage and handling are required to avoid degradation or moisture absorption.
