:1-(2-methylphenyl)-2-phenylethanone
Description:
1-(2-Methylphenyl)-2-phenylethanone, also known as benzyl methyl ketone, is an organic compound characterized by its ketone functional group. It features a central carbon atom bonded to a carbonyl group (C=O) and two aromatic rings: one derived from 2-methylphenyl and the other from phenyl. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pleasant aromatic odor. It is moderately soluble in organic solvents and has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic structure. The compound is primarily used in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of various pharmaceuticals and fragrances. Its reactivity is influenced by the presence of the ketone group, making it susceptible to nucleophilic attacks. Safety data indicates that it should be handled with care, as it may cause irritation to the skin and eyes. Proper storage in a cool, dry place away from light is recommended to maintain its stability.
