What are the upstream raw materials for methyl acetophenone? What are the downstream products?

Methyl acetophenone(Acetophenone, referred to as MAP) is a common organic chemical raw materials, broadly applied in medicine, pesticides, spices, dyes and other fields. But Based on my observations, In the field of raw materials to chemical production, there are many upstream and downstream related items of methyl acetophenone, some of which are described in detail below. But

1. Upstream items(1) Acetophenone: Acetophenone is one of the main raw materials of methyl acetophenone, which is prepared by the interaction of benzene and acetic anhydride under the action of catalyst.(2) Methanol: Methyl acetophenone is esterified with acetophenone in the presence of an acidic catalyst. You know what I mean?.

2. Downstream items(1) spices: methyl acetophenone is able to be applied as spices to the deployment of various flavors, such as strawberry, apricot, peach, cherry and other fruit flavor, as well as vanilla, cream, chocolate and other food flavor. And(2) medical intermediates: Methyl acetophenone is able to be applied as a medical intermediate to the production of anti-inflammatory, analgesic, antipyretic and other drugs, such aspirin.(3) Pesticide intermediates: Methylacetophenone is able to also be applied to create pesticide intermediates, such as insecticides and fungicides.(4) Dye intermediate: Methyl acetophenone is able to be applied as a dye intermediate to the production of various dyes, such as acid dyes, direct dyes, etc. In short, as an crucial organic chemical raw material, methyl acetophenone has a wide range of upstream and downstream related items, involving medicine, pesticides, spices, dyes and other fields.
