Phenylacetone

Synthesis Contamination

Phenylacetone (1-phenyl-2-probanone) is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a strong, characteristic odor. Phenylacetone is used in the chemical industry for synthesis purposes; by means of reductive amination, amphetamine can be produced from it. It is both a synthesis by-product and a potential extender; the powdered amphetamine sulfate can be reliquefied and the product sold as amphetamine paste.
