Benzaldehyde, 4-[(phenylmethyl)thio]-

Description:

Benzaldehyde, 4-[(phenylmethyl)thio]- is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a benzaldehyde functional group and a thioether linkage. It features a phenylmethylthio substituent at the para position relative to the aldehyde group. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinct aromatic odor. It 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 thioether group imparts unique reactivity, making it susceptible to nucleophilic attack and oxidation. Benzaldehyde derivatives are often utilized in organic synthesis, fragrance formulations, and as intermediates in the production of pharmaceuticals. Safety considerations include potential irritant effects on skin and eyes, and appropriate handling measures should be taken to minimize exposure. Overall, this compound exemplifies the diverse chemistry of aromatic aldehydes and their derivatives.

4-(Benzylsulfanyl)benzaldehyde

CAS: 78832-95-8

Benzylsulfanylbenzaldehyde is a benzyl derivative that has been studied for its optical properties and electronic structures. The sulfur atom in this molecule is replaced with an electron-donating group, which gives the molecule a positive charge. This change also makes the substituent more polar and thus increases its ability to interact with other molecules. Substituents are groups attached to benzene rings in order to modify their chemical or physical properties. Chromophores are groups of atoms that absorb light and can be used to identify substances by their color. Electron withdrawing groups cause the dipole moment of the molecule to increase, while electron donating groups have the opposite effect on the dipole moment.
