3-Chloro-4-methoxybenzaldehyde

Description:

3-Chloro-4-methoxybenzaldehyde, with the CAS number 4903-09-7, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure, featuring a benzaldehyde functional group. It consists of a benzene ring substituted with a chlorine atom at the meta position (3-position) and a methoxy group (-OCH3) at the para position (4-position). This compound typically appears as a pale yellow to light brown liquid or solid, depending on its purity and form. It is known for its distinctive aromatic odor and is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether, but has limited solubility in water. The presence of the chlorine and methoxy substituents influences its reactivity, making it useful in various chemical syntheses, particularly in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, it may exhibit biological activity, which can be explored in medicinal chemistry. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks if ingested or inhaled.
