Chemical Properties
(2-Chlorophenyl)phenyl-methanone is white to yellow crystalline powder
Uses
(2-Chlorophenyl)phenyl-methanone is a metabolite of Clofedanol (C586920). Chlorobenzophenone is also used as a catalyst in the photocrosslinking of polyethylenes.
Uses
2-Chlorobenzophenone was used in the synthesis of 1-(2-chlorophenyl)isoquinolin-3-yl trifluoromethanesulfonate.
General Description
Thermodynamics of formation of inclusion complex between 2-chlorobenzophenone and cyclomaltoheptaose (β-cyclodextrin) has been investigated by UV-vis spectroscopy and reversed-phase liquid chromatography. 2-Chlorobenzophenone undergoes reduction in the presence of LiAlH
4 and (
R)-(-)-2-(2-
iso-indolinyl)butan-1-ol to afford the corresponding benzhydrols.
