Pentanal, 4,4-dimethyl- is an organic compound classified as an aldehyde, characterized by the presence of a carbonyl group (C=O) at the terminal position of a five-carbon chain, with two methyl groups attached to the fourth carbon. Its molecular formula is C7H14O, indicating it contains seven carbon atoms, fourteen hydrogen atoms, and one oxygen atom. This compound typically exhibits a distinct, pleasant odor, common to many aldehydes, and is likely to be a colorless liquid at room temperature. Pentanal, 4,4-dimethyl- is soluble in organic solvents and may have limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic hydrocarbon chain. It is used in various applications, including as a flavoring agent and in organic synthesis. Like other aldehydes, it can participate in reactions such as oxidation and condensation. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as aldehydes can be irritants and may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested.
