Description :
Acetophenone 98-86-2, a liquid compound also referred to as Acetylbenzene or Methyl Phenyl Ketone, is readily available. It finds extensive use in diverse industries such as fragrance, flavor, chemical, pharmaceutical, soap, and detergent. For optimal storage, ensure the container is kept in a dry, well-ventilated area with the lid tightly closed. Properly reseal any opened containers to prevent leaks, and store them upright in a cool environment to maintain product integrity.
Acetophenone is commonly used in fragrances, flavoring, and organic synthesis. It pairs well with Methyl P-toluenesulfonate, a reagent used in the synthesis of aromatic compounds, helping to enhance the reactivity and yield in various chemical reactions.
