Das Aceton, or The Acetone, is an Alchemical text written by Dr. Christian August Becker in 1862 in German. It was originally published in 1862, with a second edition in 1867. Das Aceton is perhaps the only Alchemical work largely devoted to the study of the Philosophical acetone. The chemical acetone is the organic compound. It is the simplest ketone; a colorless, volatile, flammable liquid. The chemical acetone is not the same as the Philosophical acetone.

This volume also includes Philosophia Maturata: Of the Stone of the Philosophers by St. Dunstan in the 10th century. St. Dunstan is believed to have lived from about 909 A.D. until May 19, 988. This text was restored from a copy printed by Lancelot Colson, London 1668.
