4-Hydroxy-3-methoxybenzenepropanal

Description:
4-Hydroxy-3-methoxybenzenepropanal, also known as vanillin propanal, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure, which includes a hydroxyl group (-OH) and a methoxy group (-OCH3) attached to a benzene ring. The presence of these functional groups contributes to its properties, making it a derivative of vanillin, a well-known flavoring agent. This compound typically exhibits a sweet, pleasant aroma reminiscent of vanilla, which is attributed to its structural similarity to vanillin. It is soluble in organic solvents and may have limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic ring. In terms of reactivity, the aldehyde functional group (-CHO) can participate in various chemical reactions, including oxidation and condensation. This compound may find applications in the food industry as a flavoring agent, as well as in the synthesis of other organic compounds. Safety data should be consulted for handling and usage, as with any chemical substance, to ensure proper precautions are taken.
