Tropone(Cat No.:I044743)is a non-benzenoid aromatic compound characterized by a seven-membered conjugated ring bearing a ketone functional group. Also known as 2,4,6-cycloheptatrien-1-one, it exhibits unique electronic properties due to its aromatic π-system, despite lacking a traditional benzene ring. Tropone is widely studied in physical organic chemistry for its resonance stabilization, reactivity, and role in pericyclic reactions. It serves as a synthetic intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals, dyes, and fine chemicals. Its distinctive structure also makes it a valuable tool in studies of aromaticity and molecular orbital theory.
