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.

| Descrizione | This compound belongs to the class of organic compounds known as ketones. These are organic compounds in which a carbonyl group is bonded to two carbon atoms R2C=O (neither R may be a hydrogen atom). Ketones that have one or more alpha-hydrogen atoms undergo keto-enol tautomerization, the tautomer being an enol. |
