Phenylacetone Chemical Properties,Uses,Production

Description

Phenylacetone (exempt preparation) (Item No. 16444) is an analytical reference standard categorized as a precursor in the synthesis of amphetamine and methamphetamine. Phenylacetone is regulated as a Schedule II compound in the United States. Phenylacetone (exempt preparation) (Item No. 16444) is provided as a DEA exempt preparation. This product is intended for research and forensic applications.

Chemical Properties

1-Phenyl-2-propanone is a colorless liquid with a pleasant odor; it is insoluble in water and soluble in organic solvents.

Uses

A metabolite of Lisdexamfetamine dimesylate. 1-Phenyl-2-propanone is used as an intermediate for the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, e.g., Prenylamine, a coronary vasodilator (Hoechst) .

Uses

In organic synthesis; production of benzyl radicals by photolysis.

Definition

ChEBI: Phenylacetone is a propanone that is propan-2-one substituted by a phenyl group at position 1. It is a member of propanones and a methyl ketone.

Production Methods

1-Phenyl-2-propanone is produced by catalytic ketonization of phenylacetic acid with acetic acid over an alumina-supported cerium oxide catalyst at 400 – 500℃. It may also be produced by the rearrangement of phenylpropylene oxide on zeolites or oxidation of 2-phenylpropanol.
