Usage

General Description

4-acetylphenyl ether, also known as PEA or p-acetylphenyl ether, is an organic chemical compound with the empirical formula C10H10O2 and the IUPAC name of 1-(4-ethoxyphenyl)ethan-1-one. As the name suggests, it contains a phenyl ring (a circular arrangement of carbon atoms) with an ether and an acetyl group attached. 4-ACETYLPHENYL ETHER is notable for its presence in various types of essential oils. It serves several functions in several industries, predominantly used in the manufacturing of perfumes due to its pleasant aroma, and also used as an intermediate in the synthesis of various pharmaceutical and chemical products.

Selective electrochemical oxidation of aromatic hydrocarbons and preparation of mono/multi-carbonyl compounds

A selective electrochemical oxidation was developed under mild condition. Various mono-carbonyl and multi-carbonyl compounds can be prepared from different aromatic hydrocarbons with moderate to excellent yield and selectivity by virtue of this electrochemical oxidation. The produced carbonyl compounds can be further transformed into α-ketoamides, homoallylic alcohols and oximes in a one-pot reaction. In particular, a series of α-ketoamides were prepared in a one-pot continuous electrolysis. Mechanistic studies showed that 2,2,2-trifluoroethan-1-ol (TFE) can interact with catalyst species and generate the corresponding hydrogen-bonding complex to enhance the electrochemical oxidation performance.

Investigations into the structure-activity relationship in gemini QACs based on biphenyl and oxydiphenyl linker

Eighteen novel gemini quaternary ammonium compounds were synthesized to examine the effect of linker nature, aliphatic chain length and their relative position on antibacterial and antifungal activity. The synthesized compounds showed strong bacteriostatic activity against a panel of both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and two fungi. Some of these compounds exhibited a wider and more potent antimicrobial spectrum than commonly-used antiseptics, such as benzalkonium chloride (BAC), cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC), chlorhexidine digluconate (CHG) and octenidine dihydrochloride (OCT).
