Description

2-Hydroxy-5-methylbenzophenone is an organic chemical compound that has a hydroxyl group and two phenyl groups. It is used in the synthesis of coumarin derivatives with UV absorption, which are used in the determination of the kinetic data of oxidative reactions. The reaction rate of 2-hydroxy-5-methylbenzophenone is constant and depends on the number of hydrogen atoms present in the molecule. It reacts with chloride ions to produce a kinetic product, water molecule, and kinetic chloride ion. The kinetic constant for this reaction is determined by measuring the rate at which it takes place under different concentrations of chloride ions.
2-Hydroxy-5-methylbenzophenone is also used as a structural probe to study the hydroxyl group and its reactivity with other functional groups, such as chlorine and water molecules. These studies have shown that it has a high reactivity with these functional groups, which results in an increase in uv
