(4-chlorophenyl)(3,5-dimethylphenyl)methanone

Description:

(4-chlorophenyl)(3,5-dimethylphenyl)methanone, with the CAS number 844885-03-6, is an organic compound characterized by its ketone functional group, specifically a carbonyl group (C=O) bonded to a methanone structure. This compound features a phenyl ring substituted with a chlorine atom at the para position and another phenyl ring with two methyl groups at the meta positions. The presence of these substituents influences its physical and chemical properties, such as solubility, boiling point, and reactivity. Typically, compounds of this nature exhibit moderate to high lipophilicity due to the aromatic rings, which can affect their behavior in biological systems and their potential applications in pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. The chlorinated and methylated phenyl groups may also contribute to the compound's electronic properties, potentially affecting its reactivity in various chemical reactions. Safety and handling precautions should be observed, as with many organic compounds, due to potential toxicity or environmental impact.
