1-(2-Hydroxy-4-methylphenyl)propan-1-one
CAS:<p>1-(2-Hydroxy-4-methylphenyl)propan-1-one is an alkylphenol that is used in the production of polymers and as a precursor for other chemicals. It has a dienone structure, which means it has two double bonds in the same plane. The two methyl groups give it an isomeric ratio of 1:1. Alkylphenols have been reinvestigated for their use in polymerization reactions because of their kinetic stability and lack of rearrangements. This chemical reacts with lanthanide ions to form complexes such as [Ln(CHCOO)]. The alkyl groups on the molecule are important for its use as a precursor in the production of polymers and other chemicals.</p>Formula:C10H12O2Purity:Min. 95%Molecular weight:164.2 g/mol
