Description:4'-Methyl-3-chloropropiophenone, with the CAS number 22422-21-5, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of ketones. It features a propiophenone backbone, which consists of a phenyl group attached to a carbonyl group (C=O) and a propyl chain. The presence of a methyl group at the para position and a chlorine atom at the meta position on the aromatic ring contributes to its unique chemical properties. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and temperature. It is known for its applications in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The compound's reactivity is influenced by the electron-withdrawing nature of the chlorine atom, which can affect its electrophilic substitution reactions. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this substance, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested, and proper storage conditions should be maintained to ensure stability.
