2-Phenylcycloheptanone

Description:

2-Phenylcycloheptanone is an organic compound characterized by a cycloheptane ring with a phenyl group and a ketone functional group. Its molecular structure features a seven-membered carbon ring, which contributes to its unique cyclic properties, along with a carbonyl group (C=O) that defines its classification as a ketone. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive aromatic odor. It is relatively insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents, reflecting its hydrophobic nature. The presence of the phenyl group enhances its stability and can influence its reactivity, making it a useful intermediate in organic synthesis. 2-Phenylcycloheptanone may exhibit various chemical properties, including potential reactivity in electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions due to the electron-rich nature of the phenyl ring. Additionally, it may be utilized in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, fragrances, and other organic compounds, showcasing its versatility in chemical applications. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with any chemical substance.
