Beschreibung

3-Methyl-p-anizaldehyde is a vanillyl alcohol, which is a natural compound that can be found in vanilla beans. It has been used in the synthesis of vanillic acid and lactams. 3-Methyl-p-anizaldehyde has been shown to react with alkyl halides to form alkylated products. These reactions are catalyzed by an enzyme called alcohol dehydrogenase. This enzyme binds to the hydroxyl group on the 3 position of the vanillin molecule, which is then oxidized to form a functional group called an acetate ester. The reaction occurs at low temperatures and can result in optical activity if it produces a chiral product. 3-Methyl-p-anizaldehyde also reacts with ecteinascidins, which are marine natural products that have potent cytotoxic properties against cancer cells.
