Description

Heptylphenylketone is a colorless liquid that is soluble in organic solvents. It is used as a chemical intermediate and has been found to be toxic to humans. Heptylphenylketone can be reduced with borohydride, which will result in the formation of phenol. The reduction of heptylphenylketone with borohydride at constant pressure will yield phenol, acetophenone, and benzoic acid. The transport properties of heptylphenylketone are controlled by its hydrophobicity and the degree of hydrogen bonding between the molecules. Human metabolism of heptylphenylketone has been studied by analysis of urine samples collected from volunteers who were given an oral dose of 25 mg/kg body weight. It was found that heptylphenylketone was metabolized mainly by oxidation to produce aldehydes, ketones, acids, fatty acids, and carboxylic acids.
