1-Propanone, 1-(2,5-dimethylphenyl)-3-(3-methylphenyl)-

Description:

1-Propanone, 1-(2,5-dimethylphenyl)-3-(3-methylphenyl)-, also known by its CAS number 898790-75-5, is an organic compound characterized by its ketone functional group. This substance features a propanone backbone with two aromatic substituents: a 2,5-dimethylphenyl group and a 3-methylphenyl group. The presence of these bulky aromatic rings contributes to its unique physical and chemical properties, including its solubility in organic solvents and potential volatility. Typically, compounds of this nature exhibit moderate to high boiling points due to the presence of the ketone group, which can engage in dipole-dipole interactions. Additionally, the steric hindrance from the methyl groups on the aromatic rings may influence its reactivity and stability. This compound may be of interest in various applications, including organic synthesis and materials science, due to its structural characteristics. However, specific safety and handling guidelines should be followed, as with all chemical substances, to mitigate any potential hazards associated with its use.
