Benzaldehyde, 4-(1,1-dimethylethyl)-2-methoxy-

Description:
Benzaldehyde, 4-(1,1-dimethylethyl)-2-methoxy-, also known by its CAS number 53535-88-9, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure, which includes a benzene ring substituted with a methoxy group and a tert-butyl group. This compound typically exhibits a pleasant, almond-like odor, characteristic of many benzaldehyde derivatives. It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature and is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether, but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. The presence of the methoxy group enhances its reactivity, making it a useful intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of fragrances and flavoring agents. Additionally, the tert-butyl group contributes to the compound's steric hindrance, influencing its chemical reactivity and interactions with other molecules. Safety data indicates that it should be handled with care, as it may cause irritation upon contact with skin or eyes and should be used in well-ventilated areas.
