Benzamide, N-(4-acetylphenyl)-4-chloro-

Description:

Benzamide, N-(4-acetylphenyl)-4-chloro- is an organic compound characterized by its benzamide structure, which features a benzene ring attached to a carbonyl group (C=O) and an amine (NH2) group. The specific compound has a chloro substituent at the para position relative to the amide group and an acetyl group at the para position of the phenyl ring. This configuration contributes to its unique chemical properties, including its potential as a building block in organic synthesis and pharmaceuticals. The presence of the chloro group can enhance reactivity and influence solubility, while the acetyl group may impart additional functional characteristics. The compound is typically solid at room temperature and may exhibit moderate solubility in organic solvents. Its molecular interactions can be influenced by hydrogen bonding due to the amide functional group, making it relevant in various chemical applications, including medicinal chemistry and material science. Safety data should be consulted for handling and usage, as with any chemical substance.
