Description:
3,4-Dimethylpropiophenone, with the CAS number 17283-12-4, is an organic compound belonging to the class of ketones. It features a propiophenone structure, characterized by a phenyl group attached to a carbonyl group (C=O) and an alkyl chain. Specifically, this compound has two methyl groups located at the 3 and 4 positions of the aromatic ring, which influences its chemical properties and reactivity. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a sweet, aromatic odor. 3,4-Dimethylpropiophenone is used in various applications, including as a photoinitiator in polymer chemistry, where it facilitates the curing of resins upon exposure to UV light. Its chemical stability and ability to absorb UV light make it valuable in the production of coatings and adhesives. As with many organic compounds, safety precautions should be observed when handling it, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested. Proper storage and disposal methods are essential to minimize environmental impact.
