:Butanal, 2,3,3-trimethyl-
Description:
2,3,3-Trimethylbutanal, with the CAS number 17408-48-9, is an organic compound belonging to the aldehyde family. It is characterized by a branched-chain structure, featuring a butanal backbone with three methyl groups attached to the second and third carbon atoms. This configuration contributes to its unique physical and chemical properties. Typically, it is a colorless liquid with a distinctive odor, which is common among aldehydes. The compound is soluble in organic solvents and exhibits moderate volatility. Its boiling point and melting point are influenced by the presence of the bulky methyl groups, which can affect intermolecular interactions. As an aldehyde, it possesses a functional carbonyl group (C=O) that makes it reactive, particularly in nucleophilic addition reactions. 2,3,3-Trimethylbutanal may be used in various applications, including as a flavoring agent or in organic synthesis. However, safety precautions should be taken when handling it, as aldehydes can be irritants and may pose health risks upon exposure.
