2-Butyl-1-indanone (CAS 6754-08-9) is a key organic intermediate with molecular formula C13H16O. It is primarily synthesized via Friedel-Crafts acylation of butylbenzene followed by cyclization, serving as a critical precursor in fine chemical manufacturing.
Requires storage in cool, dry, ventilated areas away from oxidizers. Handling mandates PPE including gloves and goggles due to potential skin irritation and respiratory sensitization; not intended for direct human consumption.
