Chemical Information
FooDB Name2-Heptanone
Description2-Heptanone, also known as butylacetone or heptan-2-one, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as ketones. These are organic compounds in which a carbonyl group is bonded to two carbon atoms R2C=O (neither R may be a hydrogen atom). 2-Heptanone is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble in water, and relatively neutral. It is a colorless, water-like liquid with a blue-cheesy, banana-like, fruity or cinnamon odor. It has a cheesy, cocount-like taste. 2-Heptanone is an FDA-approved food additive and is also used as a perfuming agent or fragrance in cosmetics. 2-Heptanone can be added to baked goods, condiments and hard candy. 2-Heptanone occurs naturally in certain foods such as beer, white bread, butter, various cheeses and potato chips. 2-Heptanone is one of the metabolites of n-heptane found in the urine of employees exposed to heptane in shoe and tire factories.

Classification
Description Belongs to the class of organic compounds known as ketones. These are organic compounds in which a carbonyl group is bonded to two carbon atoms R2C=O (neither R may be a hydrogen atom). Ketones that have one or more alpha-hydrogen atoms undergo keto-enol tautomerization, the tautomer being an enol.
