Cyclohexanone is colorless oily liquid with oleum menthae and acetone odor at normal temperature. It is slightly soluble in water (5-10 g/100 ml) and miscible with most organic solvents. Cyclohexanone is used as solvent and trigger agent of some oxidizing reactions in industry and in producing adipic acid, cyclohexanone resin, caprolactam and nylon.
