Octanal, 2-[(phenylmethoxy)methoxy]-

Description:

Octanal, 2-[(phenylmethoxy)methoxy]- is an organic compound characterized by its structure, which includes an octanal backbone and two methoxy groups attached to a phenylmethoxy substituent. This compound is part of the aldehyde family, which typically features a carbonyl group (C=O) at the terminal position of a carbon chain. The presence of the phenyl group indicates that it has aromatic characteristics, contributing to its potential reactivity and interactions. The methoxy groups enhance its solubility in organic solvents and may influence its boiling point and volatility. As an aldehyde, it may participate in various chemical reactions, including oxidation and condensation. The compound's unique structure suggests potential applications in fragrance, flavoring, or as an intermediate in organic synthesis. However, specific physical properties such as boiling point, melting point, and solubility would need to be referenced from experimental data or literature for precise applications and handling guidelines. Safety data should also be consulted to ensure proper handling and usage in laboratory or industrial settings.
