Acetophenone is formed as a byproduct of the cumene process, the industrial route for the synthesis of phenol and acetone.In the Hock rearrangement of isopropylbenzene hydroperoxide, migration of a methyl group rather than the phenyl group gives acetophenone and methanol as a result of an alternate rearrangement of the intermediate:
1-Phenylethylamine may be prepared by the reductive amination of acetophenone: [1]. C 6 H 5 C(O)CH 3 + NH 3 + H 2 → C 6 H 5 CH(NH 2)CH 3 + H 2 O. The Leuckart reaction, using ammonium formate, is another method for this transformation.
Pyrylium salts are easily produced from simple starting materials through a condensation reaction. [2]Pyrylium salts with aromatic substituents, such 2,4,6-triphenylpyrylium tetrafluoroborate, can be obtained from two moles of acetophenone, one mole of benzaldehyde, and excess tetrafluoroboric acid.

In the presence of base and copper(II) salts, it undergoes oxidative coupling to give diphenylbutadiyne. [6] In the presence of metal catalysts, it undergoes oligomerization, trimerization, and even polymerization. [7] [8] In the presence of gold or mercury reagents, phenylacetylene hydrates to give acetophenone: PhC 2 H + H 2 O → PhC(O)CH 3
The reaction of acetophenone enolate with phenyl isothiocyanate. In this one-pot synthesis [9] the ultimate reaction product is a Thiazolidine. This reaction is stereoselective with the formation of the Z-isomer only. Electrochemical reduction gives thioformamides. [10]: 340
Phenylglyoxal was first prepared by thermal decomposition of the sulfite derivative of the oxime: [5]. C 6 H 5 C(O)CH(NOSO 2 H) + 2 H 2 O → C 6 H 5 C(O)CHO + NH 4 HSO 4. More conveniently, it can be prepared from methyl benzoate by reaction with KCH 2 S(O)CH 3 to give PhC(O)CH(SCH 3)(OH), which is oxidized with copper(II) acetate. [6]
Phenacyl chloride, also commonly known as chloroacetophenone, is a substituted acetophenone.It is a useful building block in organic chemistry.Apart from that, it has been historically used as a riot control agent, where it is designated CN. [5]
