2-Pentanone or methyl propyl ketone (MPK) is a ketone and solvent of minor importance. It is comparable to methyl ethyl ketone, but has a lower solvency and is more expensive.[5] It occurs naturally in Nicotiana tabacum (Tobacco)[6] and blue cheese as a metabolic product of Penicillium mold growth.[7]
