• Synonyms: 3',5'-Dimethylacetophenone
• CAS: 5379-16-8

Description

3',5'-Dimethylacetophenone is a ligand that can bind to the activated site of polynuclear metal complexes and undergoes acetylation by acetic anhydride in the presence of base. The reaction time for the condensation product formation is typically less than 1 min. Acetonitrile is used as a solvent during the synthesis, which may be due to its ability to activate the methyl group on 3',5'-dimethylacetophenone. Kinetics studies have shown that 3',5'-dimethylacetophenone can react with benzoyl chloride at room temperature in less than 10 minutes, while at higher temperatures it takes only a few seconds.
