CAS 42728-62-1: [4-(Chloromethyl)phenyl]phenylmethanone

Description:[4-(Chloromethyl)phenyl]phenylmethanone, with the CAS number 42728-62-1, is an organic compound characterized by its structure, which includes a phenyl group attached to a carbonyl (ketone) functional group, along with a chloromethyl substituent on one of the phenyl rings. This compound typically appears as a solid at room temperature and is soluble in organic solvents such as dichloromethane and acetone, but may have limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic structure. The presence of the chloromethyl group can impart reactivity, making it a potential intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the development of pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. Its chemical properties include the ability to undergo electrophilic aromatic substitution and nucleophilic reactions, which can be exploited in various synthetic pathways. Safety data should be consulted, as compounds with chlorinated groups can pose health risks, including toxicity and environmental concerns. Proper handling and disposal in accordance with safety regulations are essential when working with this substance.
