Acetophenone is an organic compound with major use in the chemical industry for the polymerization of olefins, and organic synthesis as a photosensitizer and as a specialty solvent for plastics and resins. It is also a chemical intermediate for the odorant ethyl methyl phenylglycidate, the riot control agent 2-chloroacetophenone and 2- bromoacetophenone for dyes. It is used in the manufacture of pharmaceuticals, rubber, dyes, and corrosion inhibitors. Acetophenone was approved by the FDA as a flavoring substance and adjuvant in food. It is used as a flavoring agent in non-alcoholic beverages, ice cream, candy, baked goods, gelatins, puddings, tobacco, and chewing gum. It is used to impart an orange-blossom fragrance in soaps, detergents, creams, lotions, and perfumes.
