5-Methyl-1-phenyl-1-hexen-3-one, with the CAS number 2892-18-4, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of α,β-unsaturated ketones. It features a hexene chain with a methyl group and a phenyl group, contributing to its unique structural characteristics. This compound typically exhibits a yellow to amber liquid form and has a distinctive aromatic odor, which is common among compounds containing phenyl groups. Its unsaturation and carbonyl functional group make it reactive, particularly in addition reactions. The presence of the methyl and phenyl substituents can influence its physical properties, such as boiling point and solubility, making it more hydrophobic. 5-Methyl-1-phenyl-1-hexen-3-one is often studied for its potential applications in organic synthesis and as a flavoring or fragrance agent due to its pleasant aroma. Additionally, it may serve as an intermediate in the synthesis of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Safety data should be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines, as with any chemical substance.

Isobutyl Styryl Ketone is a diketone that is used as an organic solvent and has a strong, sweet smell. Isobutyl Styryl Ketone is produced by the condensation of two molecules of acetone in the presence of hydrochloric acid. It can be further reacted with sodium hydroxide to form isobutyl ketones, which are used in fragrances. Isobutyl Styryl Ketone has been shown to have tranquilizing effects on the nervous system. This chemical may also be used in cycloadditions with aldehydes to produce cyclic compounds.
