1-(2-Methoxyphenyl)-2-propanone

Description:

1-(2-Methoxyphenyl)-2-propanone, also known as 2-Methoxyacetophenone, is an organic compound characterized by its ketone functional group and aromatic structure. It features a methoxy group (-OCH3) attached to a phenyl ring, which influences its chemical reactivity and physical properties. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a sweet, pleasant odor. It is moderately soluble in organic solvents like ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic structure. The presence of the methoxy group enhances its electron-donating properties, making it a useful intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of pharmaceuticals and fragrances. Additionally, it may exhibit photochemical properties, making it relevant in photoinitiators for polymerization processes. Safety data indicates that it should be handled with care, as it may cause irritation upon contact with skin or eyes. Proper storage in a cool, dry place away from light is recommended to maintain its stability.
