CAS 55262-02-7
:Cyclobutanone, 3-(phenylmethyl)-
Description:
Cyclobutanone, 3-(phenylmethyl)-, also known by its CAS number 55262-02-7, is a cyclic ketone characterized by a four-membered cyclobutane ring with a phenylmethyl (benzyl) substituent at the 3-position. This compound typically exhibits a colorless to pale yellow liquid form and has a distinctive odor. Its molecular structure features a carbonyl group (C=O) that contributes to its reactivity, particularly in nucleophilic addition reactions. Cyclobutanones are known for their strain due to the angle constraints of the four-membered ring, which can influence their chemical behavior and stability. The presence of the phenylmethyl group enhances its lipophilicity, potentially affecting its solubility in organic solvents. Additionally, cyclobutanones can participate in various chemical reactions, including oxidation and reduction, making them valuable intermediates in organic synthesis. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with all chemical substances, to ensure proper precautions are taken.

3-Benzylcyclobutanone
CAS:<p>3-Benzylcyclobutanone is a chiral, cyclic, sulfoxide that is synthesized via the asymmetric synthesis of 3-benzoylcyclobutanone and benzaldehyde. It can be used in the preparation of oxazolidinones, which are synthetic drugs with anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic properties. The optical purity of 3-benzylcyclobutanone has been shown to be greater than 99% by chiral GC analysis. This compound has also been synthesized using a preparative yield of 92%.</p>Formula:C11H12OPurity:Min. 95%Molecular weight:160.22 g/mol
