1,5-Dichloropentan-3-one（Cat No.:L011584）is a chlorinated aliphatic ketone with chlorine atoms at the terminal positions (1 and 5) and a central carbonyl group at position 3. This compound serves as a versatile synthetic intermediate in organic chemistry, particularly in the preparation of heterocycles and functionalized building blocks. The presence of two electrophilic chloromethylene groups enables nucleophilic substitution reactions, while the ketone functionality supports further transformations like condensations or reductions. Its bifunctional nature makes it valuable for constructing complex molecular frameworks in pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and material science applications.
