Benzaldehyde, 4-ethyl-2-hydroxy- (9CI)

Description:
Benzaldehyde, 4-ethyl-2-hydroxy- (9CI), with the CAS number 161876-64-8, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure, featuring a benzene ring with an aldehyde group and a hydroxyl group. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pleasant, almond-like odor, which is characteristic of benzaldehyde derivatives. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic structure. The presence of the hydroxyl group imparts some degree of polarity, influencing its reactivity and interactions. Benzaldehyde derivatives are often used in the synthesis of various organic compounds, including pharmaceuticals and fragrances, due to their functional groups that can participate in electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions. Additionally, this compound may exhibit antioxidant properties and has potential applications in the food and cosmetic industries. Safety considerations include handling it in well-ventilated areas, as it can be irritating to the skin and eyes.
