6-Chloro-1-indanone is an organic compound characterized by its indanone structure, which consists of a bicyclic framework featuring a ketone functional group. The presence of a chlorine atom at the 6-position of the indanone ring significantly influences its chemical properties and reactivity. This compound typically appears as a pale yellow to light brown solid and is known for its potential applications in organic synthesis, particularly in the development of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its molecular formula is C9H7ClO, and it has a molecular weight that reflects the presence of the chlorine atom and the carbonyl group. The compound is generally soluble in organic solvents, such as dichloromethane and ethanol, but may have limited solubility in water. Due to the presence of the ketone and chlorine functionalities, 6-chloro-1-indanone can participate in various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions and electrophilic aromatic substitutions, making it a valuable intermediate in synthetic organic chemistry. Safety precautions should be observed when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks.
