3 carbon Ketone

(1/1)

Jill:
Can anyone give me two more examples of 3 carbon ketone, I have one:  dimethyl ketone (acetone) or propanone but I can't think of two others.  Thanks

Mitch:
cyclopropanone, can't think of an other.

Wanna be cheap?

- hexafluoroacetone
- hexachloroacetone
- hexabromoacetone
- 1-chloroacetone
- 1,3-dichloroacetone

I think you get the idea.  Just halogenate the ends of the acetone.  You can also nitrate them, etc.

Jill:
Would 2 hydroxy 2 methylpropanenitrile be one?

Mitch:
a hydroxyl group isn't a ketone.
