2,6-Dihydroxybenzaldehyde

Description:

2,6-Dihydroxybenzaldehyde, also known as 2,6-dihydroxy-phenylmethanal, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of both aldehyde and hydroxyl functional groups. Its molecular structure features a benzene ring with two hydroxyl (-OH) groups located at the 2 and 6 positions, along with an aldehyde (-CHO) group at the 1 position. This compound is typically a white to light yellow crystalline solid, exhibiting solubility in polar solvents such as water, ethanol, and methanol due to the presence of hydroxyl groups that can engage in hydrogen bonding. 2,6-Dihydroxybenzaldehyde is known for its antioxidant properties and is utilized in various applications, including as a reagent in organic synthesis and in the production of dyes and pharmaceuticals. Additionally, it can undergo typical aromatic reactions, such as electrophilic substitution, due to the electron-donating nature of the hydroxyl groups. Its chemical behavior and reactivity make it a valuable compound in both research and industrial contexts.

2,6-Dihydroxybenzaldehyde is a chemical compound that has been used as an intermediate in the synthesis of other chemicals. It is also used as a precursor for benzaldehyde and benzoic acid. 2,6-Dihydroxybenzaldehyde can be synthesized by reacting sodium carbonate with pluronic F127 in the presence of cationic surfactant. The surface methodology used in this process involves the use of hydrophobic molecules to form micelles and liposomes on the surface of the electrode. The interaction between these micelles and liposomes is pH dependent. This reaction causes an increase in hydrogen ions, which leads to an increase in conductivity at acidic pH values. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) results show that 2,6-dihydroxybenzaldehyde reacts with high concentrations of salt and water vapor. FTIR spectroscopy shows that it has two hydroxyl groups and one double
