2-Cyclopentenone (CAS: 930-30-3, C5H6O) is a versatile cyclic enone serving as a critical intermediate in organic synthesis. Produced via oxidation of cyclopentanol or dimerization of acetylene derivatives, it acts as a key building block for pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals.
Store in a cool, dry, ventilated area away from oxidizers. Use appropriate PPE including gloves and goggles; avoid inhalation due to potential respiratory irritation and flammability risks.
