3-(1,1-Dimethylethyl)-2-hydroxy-6-methylbenzaldehyde

Description:
3-(1,1-Dimethylethyl)-2-hydroxy-6-methylbenzaldehyde, also known by its CAS number 68591-08-2, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure, which includes a benzaldehyde functional group. This compound features a hydroxyl group (-OH) and a tert-butyl group (1,1-dimethylethyl) attached to the benzene ring, contributing to its unique chemical properties. The presence of the hydroxyl group enhances its solubility in polar solvents and can participate in hydrogen bonding, while the bulky tert-butyl group can influence steric hindrance and reactivity. The methyl group at the 6-position of the benzene ring adds to the compound's hydrophobic character. This compound may exhibit biological activity, making it of interest in various fields, including pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its structural features suggest potential applications in synthesis and as a building block in organic chemistry. As with many organic compounds, safety and handling precautions should be observed due to potential toxicity or reactivity.
