 |  | Definition | ChEBI: P-Hydroxypropiophenone is a member of acetophenones. |  | Synthesis Reference(s) | The Journal of Organic Chemistry, 30, p. 2491, 1965 DOI: 10.1021/jo01018a528 |  | Safety Profile | Poison by 
intraperitoneal, subcutaneous, and parenteral 
routes. An experimental teratogen. Other 
experimental reproductive effects. A 
flammable liquid. When heated to 
decomposition it emits acrid smoke and 
irritating fumes. See also KETONES. |  | target | Estrogen receptor |  | Purification Methods | 4'-Hydroxypropiophenone [70-70-2] M 150.2, m 149o, b 140-145o/0.5mm, 8.05. Crystallise the phenone from H2O (m 149.8-150.2o) or EtOH (m 147o). The benzoyl derivative has m 117o, and the semicarbazone has m 183o (EtOH). [Beilstein 8 H 102, 8 II 104, 8 III 379.] |
