[1,1'-Biphenyl]-3-carboxaldehyde,3',5'-dimethyl-

Description:

[1,1'-Biphenyl]-3-carboxaldehyde,3',5'-dimethyl- is an organic compound characterized by its biphenyl structure, which consists of two phenyl rings connected by a single bond. The presence of a carboxaldehyde functional group (-CHO) at the 3-position of one phenyl ring contributes to its reactivity, particularly in nucleophilic addition reactions. The additional dimethyl groups at the 3' and 5' positions of the other phenyl ring enhance the compound's steric properties and influence its electronic characteristics, potentially affecting its reactivity and solubility. This compound is typically used in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of various pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. Its physical properties, such as melting point, boiling point, and solubility, would depend on the specific molecular interactions and the presence of functional groups. As with many organic compounds, safety precautions should be taken when handling it, as it may pose health risks or environmental hazards.
