CAS 7191-39-1

1-[2-(Pentyloxy)phenyl]ethanone

Description:

1-[2-(Pentyloxy)phenyl]ethanone, also known by its CAS number 7191-39-1, is an organic compound characterized by its ketone functional group and an aromatic ring. This compound features a phenyl group substituted with a pentyloxy group, which contributes to its hydrophobic properties. The presence of the ethanone moiety indicates that it has a carbonyl group (C=O) adjacent to an ethyl group, which can influence its reactivity and interactions with other substances. Typically, compounds like this may exhibit moderate to low solubility in water due to their hydrophobic characteristics, while being more soluble in organic solvents. The structure suggests potential applications in organic synthesis, pharmaceuticals, or as a flavoring agent, depending on its specific properties and reactivity. Additionally, the presence of the pentyloxy group may enhance its lipophilicity, potentially affecting its biological activity and interaction with cellular membranes. As with many organic compounds, safety and handling precautions should be observed due to potential toxicity or reactivity.
