Abstract
The state of hydroxyacetone in neutral aqueous solutions was studied by 1H and 13C NMR and UV spectroscopy. In the concentration range 0.1-1.41 M, 96-98% of hydroxyacetone exists in the carbonyl form. The content of the hydrated form of hydroxyacetone is 2-4%. No dimeric and polymeric species were detected.
