Abstract This is a catalytic process for producing ketones and particularly methyl-benzyl-ketone. A catalyst comprising thorium oxide and a second metal oxide, preferably MnO, is formed on a substrate, preferably pumice. Phenylacetic acid and acetic acid are reacted in the presence of the catalyst to form methyl-benzyl-ketone. METHYL BENZYL KETONE [2-Propanone, 1-phenyl-] [(A) (From Phenylacetic …
Phenylacetone is an organic compound with the chemical formula C6H5CH2COCH3. It is a colorless oil that is soluble in organic solvents. This substance is used in the manufacture of methamphetamine and amphetamine, where it is commonly known as P2P. Due to the illicit uses in clandestine chemistry, it was declared a schedule II controlled substance …
Benzaldehyde the most commonly used aromatic aldehyde in chemical industry. At room temperature it exists a colorless liquid with a special smell of almonds. Benzaldehyde is the main component of bitter almond oil extract, also from apricot, cherry, laurel, extracted in peach. Benzaldehyde is also obtained by oxidation of acidic solution of toluene’s manganese dioxide(MnO₂). …
Benzaldehyde is an aromatic aldehyde used in cosmetics as a denaturant, a flavoring agent, and as a fragrance. Currently used in only seven cosmetic products, its highest reported concentration of use was 0.5% in perfumes. The characteristic benzaldehyde odor of oil of bitter almond occurs because of trace amounts of free benzaldehyde formed by hydrolysis …
