Product Information

• Name: 4-Methoxybenzaldehyde
• Synonyms: p-Anisaldehyde
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 4-Methoxybenzaldehyde is a surfactant with a Langmuir adsorption isotherm. It can be used in analytical methods for the determination of sodium carbonate at concentrations of 1 mg/mL and higher. The redox potentials of 4-methoxybenzaldehyde are +0.37 and -0.35 volts, which corresponds to group P2. The reaction mechanism for 4-methoxybenzaldehyde is the oxidation of the compound by potassium permanganate (KMnO4) in aqueous solution to form 4-hydroxybenzoic acid (4HB). The fluorescent derivative of 4-methoxybenzaldehyde is magnesium salt, which has been shown to react with ryanodine receptors in skeletal muscle cells, leading to a decrease in calcium release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Process optimization may be necessary for this product due to its limited applications in analytical chemistry.
