1-Propanone, 3-(3,4-dimethylphenyl)-1-(2-methylphenyl)-

Description:

1-Propanone, 3-(3,4-dimethylphenyl)-1-(2-methylphenyl)-, also known by its CAS number 898755-55-0, is an organic compound characterized by its ketone functional group. This substance features a propanone backbone with two aromatic substituents: a 3,4-dimethylphenyl group and a 2-methylphenyl group. The presence of these bulky aromatic rings contributes to its unique physical and chemical properties, including its solubility and reactivity. Typically, compounds of this nature exhibit moderate volatility and may have distinct odor characteristics. The molecular structure suggests potential applications in organic synthesis, particularly in the development of pharmaceuticals or as intermediates in chemical reactions. Additionally, the presence of multiple methyl groups can influence the compound's stability and interaction with other molecules.
