Usage

Uses

Used in Flavoring and Fragrance Industry:
1,1-diphenylhexan-3-one is used as a flavoring agent for its slightly floral odor, enhancing the aroma of various food products and contributing to the creation of pleasant scents in perfumes and other fragrances.
Used in Photoinitiation:
1,1-diphenylhexan-3-one is used as a photoinitiator in the production of adhesives, inks, and coatings. Its ability to initiate and control the rate of photopolymerization makes it a valuable component in the manufacturing process of these products.
Used in Sunscreen Products:
1,1-diphenylhexan-3-one is used as a UV filter in sunscreens to protect the skin from harmful ultraviolet rays. Its inclusion in sunscreen formulations helps to prevent skin damage and reduce the risk of skin cancer caused by excessive UV exposure.
However, it is important to note that concerns have been raised regarding the potential toxicity and endocrine-disrupting properties of 1,1-diphenylhexan-3-one. As a result, its use has been banned in certain applications to ensure the safety and well-being of consumers.

Tandem aldol condensation/platinacycle-catalyzed addition reactions of aldehydes, methyl ketones, and arylboronic acids

Aldol condensation of aldehydes with methyl ketones followed by anionic four-electron donor-based (type I) platinacycle-catalyzed addition reactions of arylboronic acids to form β-arylated ketones is described. Good to excellent yields of β-arylated ketones were obtained for the tandem reactions of aromatic/aliphatic aldehydes, methyl ketones, and arylboronic acids, and moderate yields were observed for the tandem reactions of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes. The aldol condensation of aldehydes with methyl ketones was successfully combined with the platinacycle-catalyzed addition reactions of arylboronic acids in a tandem fashion. A variety of β-arylated ketones was obtained in good to excellent yields.

Sequential aldol Condensation-Transition metal-Catalyzed addition reactions of aldehydes, methyl ketones, and arylboronic acids

Sequential aldol condensation of aldehydes with methyl ketones followed by transition metal-catalyzed addition reactions of arylboronic acids to form β-substituted ketones is described. By using the 1,1′;-spirobiindane- 7,7′;-diol (SPINOL)-based phosphite, an asymmetric version of this type of sequential reaction, with up to 92% ee, was also realized. Our study provided an efficient method to access β-substituted ketones and might lead to the development of other sequential/tandem reactions with transition metal-catalyzed addition reactions as the key step.

Catalytic decarboxylative alkylation of β-keto acids with sulfonamides via the cleavage of carbon-nitrogen and carbon-carbon bonds

An efficient decarboxylative alkylation reaction of β-keto acids with N-benzylic or N-allylic sulfonamides has been developed, for the first time, through sequential cleavage of carbon-nitrogen and carbon-carbon bonds in the presence of 10 mol% of FeCl3.
