Acetophenone

Description:
Acetophenone, with the CAS number 98-86-2, is an aromatic ketone characterized by its distinct sweet, floral odor reminiscent of almonds. It has a molecular formula of C8H8O and features a carbonyl group (C=O) bonded to a phenyl group, making it a key compound in organic synthesis and fragrance formulations. Acetophenone is a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature, with a moderate boiling point and a relatively low melting point. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water. This compound is commonly used as a flavoring agent, in the production of perfumes, and as an intermediate in the synthesis of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, acetophenone can undergo typical reactions of ketones, including oxidation and reduction, making it versatile in chemical reactions. Safety considerations include its potential irritant effects on the skin and eyes, necessitating proper handling and storage protocols.
