TCI C0612 2-Cyclohexylcyclohexanone is a hydrophobic cyclic ketone bearing a cyclohexyl substituent at the alpha position. Its carbonyl group supports classic transformations such as reduction, aldol condensation, and nucleophilic addition, while the bulky alpha substituent makes it useful for studying steric effects on selectivity. The dicyclohexane framework is also a recognised precursor toward biphenyl-type structures. Available in 5 g and 25 g packs, it should be handled in a fume hood and stored cool, dry, and away from heat sources.
