General description

4-Methyl-2-pentanone (Methyl isobutyl ketone (MIBK)) is an organic solvent widely used in various industrial applications. It is used as a solvent for gums, resins, paints, varnishes, lacquers, and nitrocellulose. It is also used as a denaturant and solvent in cosmetic products.

Application

4-Methyl-2-pentanone is used:

To prepare (R)-(-)-4-methyl-2-pentanol via asymmetric hydrogenation in the presence of silica-supported starch-polysulfosiloxane-platinum complex (SiO2-ST-Si-S-Pt).
In the preparation of jet-fuel-range alkene [C₁₀ and C₁₁branched alkanes] via aldol condensation reaction with furfural followed by hydrodeoxygenation reaction.
Extracting agent for silver, gold and other rare elements from cyanide solutions.

Features and Benefits

Optics express, 22(10), 12316-12326 (2014-06-13)

Cuboid-shaped organic microcavities containing a pyrromethene laser dye and supported upon a photonic crystal have been investigated as an approach to reducing the lasing threshold of the cavities. Multiphoton lithography facilitated fabrication of the cuboid cavities directly on the substrate

David Quesnel et al.

Water research, 39(4), 677-687 (2005-02-15)

An industrial wastewater that was pretreated by an aerobic thermophilic bacterial consortium (THE) was subjected to additional treatability studies by granular activated carbon (GAC) and a conventional activated sludge (CAS). The removal of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in both systems

The operating performance and products distribution of the catalytic oxidation of methyl-isobutyl-ketone over a Pt/gamma-Al2O3 catalyst.

Ting-Ke Tseng et al.

Journal of hazardous materials, 122(1-2), 155-160 (2005-05-26)

Catalytic oxidation is one of the cost-effective technologies to solve the troublesome volatile organic compounds. This study treated methyl-isobutyl-ketone (MIBK) by a commercial catalyst, Pt/gamma-Al(2)O(3), in a fixed-bed reactor. The effects of operating factors, such as operating temperature, MIBK concentration

Determination of gas phase adsorption isotherms--a simple constant volume method.
