2-Methylindene

Description:

2-Methylindene is an organic compound classified as a bicyclic aromatic hydrocarbon. It features a fused indene structure with a methyl group attached to the second carbon of the indene ring system. This compound is characterized by its colorless to pale yellow liquid form and has a distinctive aromatic odor. 2-Methylindene is known for its reactivity, particularly in electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions, due to the presence of the double bonds in its structure. It has applications in organic synthesis and can serve as a building block for more complex molecules. The compound is relatively stable under standard conditions but may undergo polymerization or oxidation when exposed to air or light. Its physical properties include a moderate boiling point and a low to moderate solubility in water, while being more soluble in organic solvents. Safety precautions should be taken when handling 2-methylindene, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested.
