:2,4-dimethoxy-6-methylbenzaldehyde
Description:
2,4-Dimethoxy-6-methylbenzaldehyde, with the CAS number 7149-90-8, is an organic compound belonging to the class of aromatic aldehydes. It features a benzene ring substituted with two methoxy groups at the 2 and 4 positions, a methyl group at the 6 position, and an aldehyde functional group at the 1 position. This compound is typically characterized by its pleasant aromatic odor, which is often utilized in the fragrance industry. 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 aldehyde group makes it reactive, particularly in condensation reactions and nucleophilic additions. Additionally, the methoxy groups can influence its reactivity and stability, often enhancing its electron-donating properties. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as with many organic chemicals, due to potential irritant effects and toxicity.
