Product Information

• Name: 2-Ethynylbenzaldehyde
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 2-Ethynylbenzaldehyde is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C8H6O2. It is an aromatic organic compound that has been used as a pharmaceutical intermediate in the synthesis of fluoroquinolones and other drugs. 2-Ethynylbenzaldehyde is also used as a reagent for the synthesis of dyes, perfumes, and rubber chemicals. This chemical has shown activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, an opportunistic pathogen that causes infectious diseases in humans with weakened immune systems. 2-Ethynylbenzaldehyde has also been shown to have anti-cancer effects, which may be due to its ability to inhibit the growth of cancer cells by blocking DNA replication or by inducing apoptosis through different pathways. This molecule can be synthesized efficiently using an asymmetric synthesis method and reaction mechanism that involves nucleophilic attack on an imine nitrogen followed by amine addition. The resulting product may then undergo a second nucleophilic
