Product Introduction:
4′-Methylpropiophenone (CAS No. 5337-93-9) is a colorless to pale yellow liquid organic compound that serves as a crucial intermediate in pharmaceutical, fragrance, and fine chemical synthesis. Also known as p-Methylpropiophenone or 1-(4-Methylphenyl)-1-propanone, it features a methyl group at the para-position of the aromatic ring and a propiophenone moiety, providing excellent reactivity for a wide range of downstream applications.
We offer 4′-Methylpropiophenone with minimum purity of 98.5%, low moisture content, and stable supply at factory-direct prices. Our product is suitable for laboratory, industrial, and commercial-grade usage. Full documentation including COA, MSDS, and TDS is available upon request.
