Description

4'-Cyclohexylacetophenone is a chalcone that is prepared from hexamethylenetetramine and cyclohexanone. The reaction of 4'-cyclohexylacetophenone with methylthio-1,3-dithiane in the presence of proton irradiation yields a mixture of products. 4'-Cyclohexylacetophenone has been used as a precursor for preparing other chalcones. This compound can be readily prepared by chlorinating 1,3-diphenylpropane to give 3-chlorocyclohexylacetic acid followed by hydrolysis to the ketone. It is also used as a starting material for synthesis of heterocycles such as benzofuran and indole.
