4'-Chloroacetophenone is a chemical substance that is used in the synthesis of other substances. It has been shown to be an effective tool for cell-specific reactions, such as methyl ketones and benzaldehyde. 4'-Chloroacetophenone reacts with hydrochloric acid and palladium complexes to produce electron reduction, which leads to the activation of methyl ketones. This reaction provides a method for synthesizing molecules with a carbonyl group. The isolated yield of this reaction is dependent on the reaction solution temperature and concentration. The mechanism of this reaction appears to be Suzuki coupling reaction.
