α-Butylcinnamaldehyde

Description:

α-Butylcinnamaldehyde, with the CAS number 7492-44-6, is an organic compound characterized by its structure, which features a butyl group attached to a cinnamaldehyde moiety. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pleasant, sweet, and floral aroma, making it valuable in the fragrance and flavor industry. It has a relatively low boiling point and is soluble in organic solvents, but its solubility in water is limited. α-Butylcinnamaldehyde exhibits properties typical of aldehydes, including reactivity towards nucleophiles and the ability to undergo oxidation. Its chemical formula reflects a combination of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms, contributing to its functional properties. Additionally, it may possess antimicrobial and antioxidant activities, which can be of interest in various applications, including cosmetics and food preservation. Safety data indicates that, like many aldehydes, it should be handled with care due to potential irritant effects on the skin and respiratory system.
