Acetylacetone is an organic compound with the chemical formula CH₃−C(=O)−CH₂−C(=O)−CH₃. It is classified as a 1,3-diketone. It exists in equilibrium with a tautomer CH₃−C(=O)−CH=C(−OH)−CH₃. The mixture is a colorless liquid. These tautomers interconvert so rapidly under most conditions that they are treated as a single compound in most applications. Acetylacetone is a building block for the synthesis of many coordination complexes as well as heterocyclic compounds.
