Description:Benzaldehyde, 2-iodo-4-methoxy- (CAS 105469-13-4) is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure, which includes a benzene ring substituted with both an aldehyde group and additional functional groups. Specifically, it features a methoxy group (-OCH3) and an iodo group (-I) at the 2 and 4 positions, respectively, relative to the aldehyde. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive aromatic odor. It is soluble in organic solvents and exhibits moderate polarity due to the presence of the methoxy group. The iodo substituent can influence its reactivity, making it a potential candidate for various chemical reactions, including electrophilic aromatic substitution and nucleophilic reactions. Benzaldehyde derivatives are often utilized in organic synthesis, fragrance formulations, and as intermediates in the production of pharmaceuticals. Safety precautions should be observed when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested.
