Fructone, also known as apple ketal and applinal, is a synthetic aroma compound with a fruity, apple-like smell with pineapple, strawberry, and woody aspects reminding of sweet pine.

Fructone is a ketal that is usually synthesized from ethyl acetoacetate and ethylene glycol in an acid catalyzed ketalization reaction.
