Most of the compounds have physiologically active properties, and their biological properties are often attributed to the heteroatoms contained in their molecules, and most of these heteroatoms also appear in cyclic structures. A Journal, Bulletin of the Chemical Society of Japan called An improved asymmetrically modified nickel catalyst prepared from ultrasonicated Raney nickel, Author is Tai, Akira; Kikukawa, Tadashi; Sugimura, Takashi; Inoue, Yoshihisa; Abe, Satoshi; Osawa, Tsutomu; Harada, Tadao, which mentions a compound: 18362-64-6, SMILESS is CC(C)C(CC(C(C)C)=O)=O, Molecular C9H16O2, Product Details of 18362-64-6.
The ultrasonic irradiation of Raney nickel catalyst in water followed by the removal of the resulting turbid supernatant gave an excellent nickel catalyst (RNi-U) which generated an asym.-modified nickel catalyst. An EPMA (SEM-EDX) study indicated that RNi-U consisted of a fairly pure nickel surface of homogeneous size. Tartaric acid-NaBr-modified RNi-U (TA-NaBr-MRNi-U) showed a high enantio-differentiating ability as well as reactivity in the hydrogenation of prochiral ketones such as 1,3-diones and 3-oxoalkanoic acid esters.
In addition to the literature in the link below, there is a lot of literature about this compound(2,6-Dimethyl-3,5-heptanedione)Product Details of 18362-64-6, illustrating the importance and wide applicability of this compound(18362-64-6).
