- CAS No.: 2550-26-7
- Formula:C10H12O
- Molecular Weight:148.21
IUPAC Name: 4-phenylbutan-2-one
InChIKey: AKGGYBADQZYZPD-UHFFFAOYSA-N
SMILES: CC(CCC1=CC=CC=C1)=O
Biological Activity: Benzylacetone (4-Penylbutan-2-one) is an aromatic compound. Benzylacetone is a mushroom tyrosinase inhibitor with an IC50 of 2.8 mM, a Ki of 1.25 mM for monophenolase and an IC50 of 0.6 mM, a Ki of 0.39 mM for diphenolase. Benzylacetone inhibits free mushroom tyrosinase and enzyme-substrate complex. Benzylacetone acts as an appetite enhancer via olfactory stimulation, reduces spontaneous locomotor activity, induces weight gain. Benzylacetone exhibits repellent, fumigant, and contact toxicity against Tribolium castaneum adults[1][2][3].
