CAS 5623-81-4

Cyclopentyl Acetaldehyde

Description:

Cyclopentyl acetaldehyde, with the CAS number 5623-81-4, is an organic compound characterized by its cyclic structure and aldehyde functional group. It features a cyclopentyl group attached to an acetaldehyde moiety, which contributes to its unique chemical properties. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor, reminiscent of aldehydes. It is moderately soluble in water and more soluble in organic solvents, reflecting its hydrophobic cyclopentyl ring. Cyclopentyl acetaldehyde is known for its reactivity, particularly in nucleophilic addition reactions due to the electrophilic nature of the carbonyl carbon in the aldehyde group. It can undergo oxidation to form cyclopentyl acetic acid or participate in various condensation reactions. This compound is utilized in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of fragrances, flavoring agents, and other chemical derivatives. Safety precautions should be observed when handling this substance, as it may cause irritation to the skin and eyes.
