(2-Chlorophenyl)(4-methylphenyl)methanone

Description:
(2-Chlorophenyl)(4-methylphenyl)methanone, also known as benzoyl-2-chlorotoluene, is an organic compound characterized by its ketone functional group, specifically a carbonyl group (C=O) bonded to a benzene ring. This compound features a chlorophenyl group at the 2-position and a methylphenyl group at the 4-position, contributing to its unique chemical properties. It is typically a solid at room temperature and exhibits moderate solubility in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone, while being less soluble in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic structure. The presence of the chlorine atom introduces electronegative characteristics, which can influence its reactivity and interactions with other chemical species. This compound may be utilized in various applications, including as an intermediate in organic synthesis and in the production of pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. Safety precautions should be observed when handling this substance, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested, and appropriate measures should be taken to mitigate exposure.
