Benzaldehyde, 4-hydroxy-3-methoxy-5-methyl-

Description:
Benzaldehyde, 4-hydroxy-3-methoxy-5-methyl-, also known as p-hydroxy-3-methoxy-5-methylbenzaldehyde, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure featuring a benzaldehyde functional group. This compound contains a hydroxyl (-OH) group, a methoxy (-OCH₃) group, and a methyl (-CH₃) group attached to the benzene ring, which contribute to its unique chemical properties. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a sweet, almond-like odor, reminiscent of benzaldehyde. The presence of the hydroxyl group imparts some polarity, influencing its solubility in polar solvents, while the methoxy group can enhance its reactivity in electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions. This compound is often used in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of various pharmaceuticals and fragrances. Additionally, it exhibits potential antioxidant properties, making it of interest in food and cosmetic applications. As with many aromatic compounds, it should be handled with care due to potential health effects upon exposure.
