Acetophenone is used for the synthesis of many pharmaceuticals.

A Mannich reaction with dimethylamine and formaldehyde gives β-dimethylaminopropiophenone. Using diethylamine instead gives the diethylamino analog.

Acetophenone is currently listed as a Group D carcinogen indicating that there is no evidence at present that it causes cancer in humans.
