5-Iodosalicylaldehyde

Description:
5-Iodosalicylaldehyde, with the CAS number 1761-62-2, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of salicylaldehydes. It features a hydroxyl group (-OH) and an aldehyde group (-CHO) attached to a benzene ring, with an iodine atom substituted at the 5-position of the aromatic ring. This compound typically appears as a pale yellow to brown solid and is known for its distinct aromatic odor. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic structure. 5-Iodosalicylaldehyde is utilized in various chemical syntheses, particularly in the preparation of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, owing to its reactivity and ability to participate in electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions. Additionally, it can serve as a ligand in coordination chemistry due to the presence of the hydroxyl and aldehyde functional groups, which can coordinate with metal ions. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested.
