Diethyl Ketone

Diethyl ketone, also known as 3-pentanone, is an organic compound with the formula (CH₃CH₂)₂CO. It is a colorless liquid with a pleasant, sweet odor similar to acetone. Its primary industrial application is as a solvent, particularly for resins and waxes in the manufacturing of paints, coatings, and adhesives, where its relatively quick evaporation is beneficial. In organic chemistry, it serves as a valuable intermediate for synthesizing more complex molecules, including various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. It is also used in the perfumery industry to create certain aromatic compounds. Explore searchable catalogue of hundreds of molecules, including details on how models were generated. NotesIf you happen to break something, use superglue to fix it. It will make the broken part even stronger.I decided to go with the ball-and-stick type, as it is easiest to color, is rigid, and looks awesome.The model represents the major resonance contributor.I oriented the model for optimal stre
