4-(3-Methylphenyl)-2-butanone

Description:
4-(3-Methylphenyl)-2-butanone, also known as a ketone, is an organic compound characterized by its functional group, which features a carbonyl group (C=O) bonded to two carbon atoms. This compound has a molecular structure that includes a butanone backbone with a 3-methylphenyl substituent, contributing to its aromatic properties. It typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive sweet, floral odor, making it of interest in the fragrance and flavor industry. The compound is moderately soluble in organic solvents and exhibits low solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic ring. Its boiling point and melting point are influenced by the molecular interactions and the presence of the aromatic group. As with many ketones, it may undergo reactions such as oxidation or reduction under specific conditions. Safety data indicates that it should be handled with care, as it may cause irritation upon contact with skin or eyes. Proper storage in a cool, well-ventilated area is recommended to maintain its stability.
