1-(2-Methylphenyl)propan-1-one, also known as 2-Methyl-1-phenylpropan-1-one, is an organic compound with the molecular formula C11H14O. It belongs to the class of ketones, characterized by the presence of a carbonyl group (C=O) bonded to two carbon atoms. This compound features a propanone structure with a 2-methylphenyl group attached to the carbonyl carbon, contributing to its aromatic characteristics. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a sweet, pleasant odor, making it useful in the fragrance and flavor industry. The compound is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. It is important to handle this substance with care, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested, and appropriate safety measures should be taken during its use in laboratory or industrial settings. Additionally, it may undergo various chemical reactions typical of ketones, including oxidation and reduction, which can be utilized in synthetic organic chemistry.

2'-Methylpropiophenone

2'-Methylpropiophenone is a photochemical reaction product of hexane and methanol. It has been shown to undergo a photochemical cyclization reaction with the production of a six-membered ring. This process is catalyzed by light and the substituent groups on the molecule determine which type of cyclization occurs. 2'-Methylpropiophenone can also be produced by a chain photochemical reaction, which involves the oxidation of an alkene in the presence of oxygen.
