Metabolite Identification
Common Name2-Methylacetophenone
Description2-Methylacetophenone, also known as 1-(O-tolyl)ethan-1-one or 2-acetyltoluene, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as alkyl-phenylketones. These are aromatic compounds containing a ketone substituted by one alkyl group, and a phenyl group. 2-Methylacetophenone is a secondary metabolite. Secondary metabolites are metabolically or physiologically non-essential metabolites that may serve a role as defense or signalling molecules. In some cases they are simply molecules that arise from the incomplete metabolism of other secondary metabolites. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on 2-Methylacetophenone.
