2-Methoxy-5-methylbenzaldehyde

Description:

2-Methoxy-5-methylbenzaldehyde, also known as anisaldehyde or 5-methyl-2-methoxybenzaldehyde, is an aromatic aldehyde characterized by its methoxy and methyl substituents on a benzene ring. It typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a sweet, floral odor, making it useful in the fragrance and flavor industries. The compound has a relatively low boiling point and is soluble in organic solvents, while being less soluble in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic structure. Its chemical formula is C9H10O2, and it features a carbonyl group (–CHO) characteristic of aldehydes, which contributes to its reactivity, particularly in nucleophilic addition reactions. 2-Methoxy-5-methylbenzaldehyde can be synthesized through various methods, including the methylation of 2-hydroxy-5-methylbenzaldehyde. It is important in organic synthesis and can serve as an intermediate in the production of other chemical compounds. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this substance, as it may cause irritation to the skin and eyes.
