微溶于水，溶于丙酮、乙醇和乙醚。 3-Hexanone has been reported as one of the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in pandan leaves, strawberry and acerola fruit.It was used in a study to determine Henry′s law coefficients by combination of the equilibrium partitioning in closed systems technique in combination with solid-phase microextraction， It was also used as test species in a study for quantitative determination of volatile organic compounds by chemical ionization reaction mass spectrometry and was used to study the inhibitory activity of some aromatic and aliphatic ketones against Clostridium Botulinum spores and cells. 3-Hexanone has been reported as one of the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in pandan leaves, strawberry and acerola fruit.
