BENZOPHENONE OXIME
Benzophenone is the organic compound with the formula (C6H5)2CO, generally abbreviated Ph2CO. It is a white solid that is soluble in organic solvents. Benzophenone is a widely used building block in organic chemistry, being the parent diarylketone.
Application
BENZOPHENONE OXIME a reagent for the colorimetric determination of urea and ureido compounds. Oxime is used as a ligand in transition-metal complex catalyst chemistry. Oxime acts as an antioxidant, radical scavenger which find applications in textile, plastic, paint, detergent, and rubber industry.
Dosage
Benzophenone is used as an ultraviolet (UV)-curing agent in sunglasses, ... and was approximately 70% of the dose applied to occluded skin within 24 hours.
