Ethanone, 1-(4-methoxy-2-methylphenyl)-, also known by its CAS number 24826-74-2, is an organic compound characterized by its ketone functional group and a substituted aromatic ring. This compound features a methoxy group (-OCH3) and a methyl group (-CH3) attached to a phenyl ring, which contributes to its unique chemical properties and reactivity. It typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pleasant odor. The presence of the methoxy group enhances its solubility in organic solvents and may influence its reactivity in various chemical reactions, such as electrophilic aromatic substitution. The compound may exhibit moderate to low toxicity, and safety precautions should be taken when handling it. Its applications can range from use in organic synthesis to potential roles in pharmaceuticals or as a fragrance component. As with many organic compounds, its stability and reactivity can be influenced by environmental factors such as temperature and pH.

4'-Methoxy-2'-methylacetophenone

4'-Methoxy-2'-methylacetophenone is a Friedel-Crafts acylation reagent that is synthesized by the reaction of acetyl chloride with an aromatic compound. It is used as a catalyst for the synthesis of bromoacetic acid, which is then converted to chloroacetic acid. 4'-Methoxy-2'-methylacetophenone also undergoes acetylation reactions, which are catalyzed by strong acids. This reagent can be used to produce many different derivatives of acetic acid, including chloroacetate and benzoylformate. The selectivity of 4'-methoxy-2'-methylacetophenone for chloride over other halides is high, making it a useful catalyst for such reactions.
4'-Methoxy-2'-methylacetophenone can be synthesized by the Friedel-Crafts acylation reaction between bromobenzene and ethyl acetate in the presence
