2-Heptanone is a colorless transparent liquid at room temperature and pressure with a special aroma. It is a compound with weak polarity and can be dissolved in water and most organic solvents. Due to the small molecular weight of 2-heptanone and the absence of strong intermolecular interaction forces in the molecular structure, its boiling point and density are low. 2-heptanone molecule contains ketone group and nonpolar alkyl group, which makes 2-heptanone both polar and hydrophobic, so it can be dissolved in water and most organic solvents.
2-Heptanone is widely used in industrial solvents, fibers, pharmaceuticals, pesticides, and flavor chemicals for organic synthesis.
In edible flavors, used in banana-type edible flavors can increase the creamy flavor, also applies to coconut, cream, cheese flavor edible flavors.
