2-Oxo-2H-chromene-3-carboxaldehyde

Description:

2-Oxo-2H-chromene-3-carboxaldehyde, also known as 3-formyl-2-oxo-2H-chromene, is an organic compound characterized by its chromene structure, which consists of a fused benzene and pyran ring. This compound features a carbonyl group (C=O) at the 2-position and an aldehyde group (–CHO) at the 3-position, contributing to its reactivity and potential applications in organic synthesis. It is typically a yellow to brown solid or liquid, depending on its purity and specific conditions. The presence of both the carbonyl and aldehyde functionalities makes it a versatile intermediate in the synthesis of various bioactive molecules, including pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, compounds of this class may exhibit interesting biological activities, such as antimicrobial or antioxidant properties.
