2-Chloro-4-methylbenzaldehyde

Description:

2-Chloro-4-methylbenzaldehyde, with the CAS number 50817-80-6, is an aromatic aldehyde characterized by the presence of a chloro group and a methyl group on a benzene ring. This compound features a chlorine atom at the second position and a methyl group at the fourth position relative to the aldehyde functional group. It typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinct aromatic odor. The compound is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic structure. 2-Chloro-4-methylbenzaldehyde is used in organic synthesis and can serve as an intermediate in the production of various pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other fine chemicals. Its reactivity is influenced by the electron-withdrawing nature of the chloro group, which can affect its electrophilic substitution reactions. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested.
