Product Information

• Name: (3E)-4-(1,3-Benzodioxol-4-yl)-3-butenoic acid
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 2,3-Methylenedioxybenzaldehyde is an organic compound that has been used as a chemical ionization reagent in the development of chemosensors. The formyl group in this molecule reacts with chloride to produce the corresponding formate salt, which can be detected by gas chromatography. This compound has also been shown to inhibit bacterial growth in vitro and may have potential applications as a drug substance. 2,3-Methylenedioxybenzaldehyde is an isomer of 2,4-methylenedioxybenzaldehyde, which has been shown to inhibit bacterial growth via hydrogen bonding with amines and electron deficient molecules such as chlorides.2,3-Methylenedioxybenzaldehyde can be used for chromatographic science and the detection of drugs in urine samples.
