Acetanisole is an aromatic chemical compound with an aroma described as sweet, fruity, nutty, and similar to vanilla. In addition acetanisole can sometimes smell like butter or caramel.[2] Its chemical names are based on considering the structure as either an acetyl (methyl-ketone) analog of anisole. Other names It can also be seen as a methyl ether analog of acetophenone.
Acetanisole is found naturally in castoreum, the glandular secretion of the beaver.[1]
Preparation
Acetanisole can be prepared synthetically by Friedel-Crafts acylation of anisole with acetyl chloride:
Application
It is used as a cigarette additive,[3] a fragrance,[1] and a flavoring in food.[4]
Reactions
4-Methoxyacetophenone is a standard substrate or product of much research, such as transfer hydrogenation[5] and directed arylations.[6]
