1-(2,4-Dimethyl-3-nitrophenyl)ethanone

Description:

1-(2,4-Dimethyl-3-nitrophenyl)ethanone, with the CAS number 13621-24-4, is an organic compound characterized by its ketone functional group and a substituted aromatic ring. The presence of the nitro group and two methyl groups on the phenyl ring contributes to its unique chemical properties, including potential reactivity and polarity. This compound typically appears as a solid at room temperature and may exhibit a distinct color, often associated with its aromatic structure. It is soluble in organic solvents, which is common for many aromatic compounds, but may have limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic characteristics. The compound's structure suggests it may participate in electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions, and its nitro group can influence its reactivity and stability. Additionally, it may have applications in organic synthesis or as an intermediate in the production of other chemical entities. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as compounds with nitro groups can sometimes pose hazards.
