| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Uses]
3-Methyl-1-indanone is suitable for the synthesis of branched alkyl indanes (BINs). It may be used in the following studies:
- Synthesis of 2,2,3-tribromo-2,3-dihydro-3-methylinden-1-one and 2-bromo-3-bromomethyl-1H-inden-1-one.
- As photosensitizers for the splitting of dimethylthymine dimers.
- As a model to verify three-phase model in enantioselective gas-liquid chromatography.
- (-)-(R)-3-methyl-1-indanone may be used as standard for comparing the optical rotatory dispersion curve with 1,3-dialkylindenes in the study of base-catalyzed 1,3 proton transfer in indene systems.
- As an optically active sensitizer to induce asymmetry in trans-1,2-diphenylcylcopropane (DPC).
- The dl-isomers of 3-methyl-1-indanone may be used in the synthesis of monomeric and trimeric 3-methyl-1-indanethione.
