3-(4-tert-butylphenyl)propionaldehyde

Description:
3-(4-tert-Butylphenyl)propionaldehyde, with the CAS number 942070-45-3, is an organic compound characterized by its aldehyde functional group and a propionaldehyde backbone. This compound features a tert-butyl group attached to a phenyl ring, which contributes to its hydrophobic nature and influences its physical properties. Typically, it appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive aromatic odor. The presence of the bulky tert-butyl group enhances its steric hindrance, which can affect its reactivity and interactions with other molecules. This compound is often utilized in the synthesis of fragrances and flavoring agents due to its pleasant scent profile. Additionally, it may serve as an intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of various chemical derivatives. As with many aldehydes, it is important to handle this substance with care, as it may be reactive and potentially hazardous. Proper safety measures should be observed when working with this compound in laboratory or industrial settings.
