3-(2-Methylphenyl)-1-[2-(methylthio)phenyl]-1-propanone

Description:

3-(2-Methylphenyl)-1-[2-(methylthio)phenyl]-1-propanone, identified by its CAS number 898789-34-9, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of ketones. This substance features a propanone backbone substituted with two distinct aromatic groups: a 2-methylphenyl group and a 2-(methylthio)phenyl group. The presence of the methylthio group introduces a sulfur atom into the molecular structure, which can influence the compound's reactivity and properties. Typically, compounds of this nature exhibit characteristics such as moderate to high lipophilicity due to their aromatic content, which can affect their solubility in organic solvents. Additionally, the presence of multiple functional groups may impart unique chemical reactivity, making it of interest in various synthetic applications, including organic synthesis and potentially in the development of pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. Safety and handling precautions should be observed, as with many organic compounds, due to potential toxicity or reactivity.
