| Chemical Properties | Back Directory | [Description]
2-Acetylfuran is a gold-coloured solid with the odour of sweet balsam almond cocoa caramel
coffee. It is incompatible with strong oxidising agents, strong reducing agents, and strong
bases. It is combustible. 2-Acetylfuran on decomposition releases carbon monoxide and carbon
dioxide. It is insoluble in water but soluble in alcohol, dipropylene glycol, and ethyl ether. | [Appearance]

| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Chemical Properties]
2-Acetylfuran is a gold-colored solid with an odor of sweet balsam almond cocoa, caramel
coffee. It is incompatible with strong oxidizing agents, strong reducing agents, and strong
bases. It is combustible. On decomposition, 2-acetylfuran releases carbon monoxide and carbon
dioxide. It is insoluble in water, but soluble in alcohol, dipropylene glycol, and ethyl ether. | [Health Hazard]
Exposures to 2-acetylfuran by ingestion, inhalation, and skin absorption cause harmful
effects. It causes irritation to the skin, the eyes, coughing, respiratory tract irritation, and
respiratory distress. Accidental ingestion causes irritation of the digestive tract. There are
no data about chronic exposure and adverse effects. | [Occurrence]
Reported found as a constituent in coffee aroma; also isolated from beech and oak wood tar oils; an aroma
component of yellow passion fruit (Passiflora edulis f. flavicarpa); also a volatile flavor component of potato chips. Also reported in
tomato paste, roasted beef, grilled pork, beer, rum, red wine and green tea. | [Uses]
2-Acetylfuran is a widely used reagent in manufacturing pharmaceuticals and aroma compounds. | [Definition]
ChEBI: A furan carrying an acetyl substituent at the 2-position. | [Preparation]
From furan and acetyl chloride by a Friedel–Kraft condensation. | [Aroma threshold values]
Detection: 10 ppm | [General Description]
2-Furyl methyl ketone is a volatile heterocyclic flavor compound that may be formed in food due to Maillard reaction. It has been reported in roasted sesame seeds, fried beef and sweet corn products. | [Biochem/physiol Actions]

2-Acetylfuran should be kept away from sources of ignition, heat, sparks, flame, and light.
It should be kept stored in a tightly sealed container in a dry area/refrigerated (below
4°C/39°F). | [Precautions]
During handling and use of 2-acetylfuran, occupational workers should use appropriate
and proper personal protective equipment and wear a self-contained breathing apparatus.
Workers should avoid generating dusty conditions, minimize generation and accumulation
of dust, remove all sources of ignition, and use a spark-proof tool. Workers should use
2-acetylfuran only in a chemical fume hood. | [Toxicity]
