The common name of 2 butanone is ​methyl ethyl ketone

Explanation:

  • Butanone, also known as methyl ethyl ketone (MEK), is an organic compound with the formula CH_3C(O)CH_2CH_3. This colorless liquid ketone has a sharp, sweet odor reminiscent of butterscotch and acetone. It is produced industrially on a large scale, and also occurs in trace amounts in nature.
  • MEK is a liquid solvent used in surface coatings, adhesives, printing inks, chemical intermediates, magnetic tapes and lube oil dewaxing agents. MEK also is used as an extraction medium for fats, oils, waxes and resins. It is a highly efficient and versatile solvent for surface coatings.
  • MEK is a colorless organic liquid with an acetone-like odor. In the U.S., MEK is produced using dehydrogenation of secondary butyl alcohol (approximately 86%) and as a by- product of butane oxidation (remaining 14%).
