Translations:Acetone/10/en

Acetone was first recorded in 1606, in Germany. Around 1610-1670 she was very popular among alchemists. Acetone was named “Maiden of Saturn” in this era because they thought she was a lead compound (as Lead Acetate's child). She lost her popularity in the 18th century and lived as an artist and a poet. Nobody was concerned about her until the 1830s. Chemists of the 19th century were interested in her. She was named "Mesitria" which meant "the mediator" in Greek, she never used this name.
