4'-Isopropylacetophenone Usage And Synthesis

Description

p-Isopropylacetophenone has an odor reminiscent of orris and basil. It has a warm, spicy flavor. May be synthesized by condensing cymene with acetyl chloride in the presence of AlCl3; also from benzol, acetyl chloride, and isopropyl chloride via Friedel Crafts.

Chemical Properties

p-Isopropylacetophenone has a spicy, woody, herbaceous odor reminiscent of orris and basil. It has a warm, spicy flavor

Chemical Properties

clear almost colorless to yellow liquid

Occurrence

Reported found in oil of lavandin, starfruit and dried bonito
