Methyl 4-acetyl-5-oxohexanoate is believed to function by donating protons, which leads to the creation of a reversible complex with metal ions. This complex can serve as a catalyst for various reactions, such as ester hydrolysis, amide formation, and amine synthesis. Additionally, it exhibits chelating properties by binding to metal ions and forming stable complexes.
