Description

4'-Methylacetophenone has a fruity, floral odor resembling acetophenone and a sweet, strawberry-like flavor. clear colourless to pale yellowish liquid 4'-Methylacetophenone has been identified in Brazilian rosewood oil and in pepper. It occurs as colorless crystals with a floral, sweet odor that is milder than that of acetophenone. 4-Methylacetophenone is prepared from toluene and acetic anhydride or acetyl chloride by a Friedel–Crafts reaction. It is used for blossom notes in mimosaand haw


4'-Methylacetophenone is a methylated acteophenone used in cosmetics and perfumery. The presence of 4'-Methylacetophenone has been shown to accelerate the photopolymerization of Methyl methacrylate.
