Background and overview[1]
P-methylacetophenone is colorless needle-like crystals or colorless to nearly colorless liquid. This product has an aroma similar to hawthorn flowers, and has a fragrance like alfalfa, honey, and strawberry. The floral and fruity aroma is sharp and sweet. It can be used to prepare acacia-type and lilac-type flavors for soaps, and can also be used as fruit food flavor. It is prepared from the acetylation reaction of toluene and acetic anhydride in the presence of anhydrous aluminum trichloride. Para-methylacetophenone is an important fine chemical intermediate in the field of food and chemical industry. It can be used as a food additive and an intermediate in the production of other high value-added products. Its natural product is found in rosewood essential oil and mimosa flower oil. .

1. Used in the preparation of celecoxib
Celecoxib, trade name: Celebrex, chemical name: 4‑[5‑(4‑methylphenyl)‑3‑(trifluoromethyl)‑1H‑pyrazole‑1‑ [Basic]benzenesulfonamide, with the chemical formula C17H14F3N3O2S, is the first specific type 2 epoxygenase (COX‑2) inhibitor launched by the American Searle Company. Its selectivity for COX‑2 is 375 times that of COX‑1. , mainly used for the treatment of osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. Its anti-inflammatory activity is equivalent to that of indomethacin, but it has almost no gastrointestinal side effects. The synthesis method of celecoxib mainly involves Claisen condensation of p-methylacetophenone to obtain β-diketone intermediate, and then cyclization with p-hydrazinobenzenesulfonamide to obtain celecoxib.
2. Used in the synthesis of 4-chloro-2-cyano-N,N-dimethyl-5-(4-methylphenyl)-1H-imidazole-1-sulfonamide
4-Chloro-2-cyano-N,N-dimethyl-5-(4-methylphenyl)-1H-imidazole-1-sulfonamide (cyanofenazole) is manufactured by Ishihara Sangyo Co., Ltd. The new generation imidazole fungicide developed by the company and jointly with BASF is mainly used to prevent and control diseases caused by Oomycete pathogens, such as potato late blight, tomato late blight, grape downy mildew, cucumber downy mildew, etc. It has good protective activity, long residual effect, and is resistant to rain erosion. It can be used for soil treatment or foliar spraying, and has very low toxicity and good environmental compatibility.
