CAS 43153-07-7: Benzeneacetic acid,4-formyl-a-methyl-
Description:Benzeneacetic acid, 4-formyl-α-methyl- is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure and functional groups. It features a benzene ring substituted with a formyl group (-CHO) at the para position and an α-methyl group, which contributes to its overall structure and reactivity. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and specific conditions. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic ring. The presence of both the carboxylic acid and aldehyde functional groups allows for various chemical reactions, including esterification and condensation. This compound may be used in organic synthesis, particularly in the development of pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals, due to its potential reactivity and ability to serve as a building block for more complex molecules. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with any chemical substance, to ensure proper precautions are taken.
