1-Propanone, 3-(3-chlorophenyl)-1-(4-methylphenyl)-

Description:

1-Propanone, 3-(3-chlorophenyl)-1-(4-methylphenyl)-, also known by its CAS number 898762-17-9, is an organic compound characterized by its ketone functional group. This substance features a propanone backbone with two aromatic substituents: a 3-chlorophenyl group and a 4-methylphenyl group. The presence of the chlorine atom introduces electronegative characteristics, potentially influencing the compound's reactivity and polarity. The methyl group on the phenyl ring can affect steric hindrance and electronic properties, which may play a role in its interactions in chemical reactions. Typically, compounds of this nature are studied for their potential applications in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, or as intermediates in organic synthesis. The physical properties, such as boiling point, melting point, and solubility, would depend on the specific molecular interactions and the overall structure. Safety data and handling precautions are essential when working with this compound, as with many organic chemicals, due to potential toxicity or reactivity.
