3-METHOXY-2-METHYL-BENZALDEHYDE

Description:
3-Methoxy-2-methyl-benzaldehyde, with the CAS number 56724-03-9, is an organic compound belonging to the class of aromatic aldehydes. It features a methoxy group (-OCH3) and a methyl group (-CH3) attached to a benzaldehyde structure, which contributes to its unique chemical properties. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pleasant, sweet, and floral aroma, making it useful in the fragrance and flavoring industries. Its molecular structure allows for various chemical reactions, including oxidation and reduction, and it can participate in electrophilic aromatic substitution due to the electron-donating effects of the methoxy and methyl groups. Additionally, 3-methoxy-2-methyl-benzaldehyde is soluble in organic solvents and has limited solubility in water. Safety data indicates that, like many aldehydes, it should be handled with care due to potential irritant properties. Overall, this compound is of interest in both synthetic organic chemistry and industrial applications.
