1-(2,3-dimethylphenyl)-3-(2-methylsulfanylphenyl)propan-1-one

Description:

1-(2,3-Dimethylphenyl)-3-(2-methylsulfanylphenyl)propan-1-one, identified by its CAS number 898754-72-8, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of ketones. This substance features a propanone backbone with two distinct aromatic substituents: a 2,3-dimethylphenyl group and a 2-methylsulfanylphenyl group. The presence of the methylsulfanyl group introduces a sulfur atom into the structure, which can influence the compound's reactivity and solubility. Typically, compounds of this nature exhibit moderate to high lipophilicity due to their aromatic character, which may affect their biological activity and interactions with other molecules. The compound may be of interest in various fields, including organic synthesis and medicinal chemistry, due to its potential applications in drug development or as a precursor in the synthesis of more complex molecules. As with many organic compounds, safety data and handling precautions should be considered, particularly regarding its stability and potential toxicity.
