1-(2,5-Dimethylphenyl)-2,2-dimethyl-1-butanone

Description:

1-(2,5-Dimethylphenyl)-2,2-dimethyl-1-butanone, identified by its CAS number 898765-58-7, is an organic compound characterized by its ketone functional group. This substance features a bulky structure due to the presence of both a dimethylphenyl group and a dimethylbutanone moiety, which contributes to its unique physical and chemical properties. Typically, compounds of this nature exhibit moderate volatility and may have a distinct aromatic odor, influenced by the phenyl group. The presence of multiple methyl groups enhances its hydrophobic characteristics, making it less soluble in water but more soluble in organic solvents. This compound may be utilized in various applications, including as a flavoring agent or in the synthesis of other organic compounds. Additionally, its structural complexity suggests potential reactivity in organic synthesis, particularly in reactions involving nucleophiles or electrophiles. Safety data should be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines, as with any chemical substance, to ensure proper safety measures are in place.
