• Description: p-Tolualdehyde is an organic compound that has a pyrazole ring with a methyl group substituted at the 3-position. It is also a precursor to other compounds, such as p-toluenesulfonyl chloride and p-toluenesulfonic acid. It can be synthesized by the reaction of trifluoroacetic acid with copper(II) chloride and hydrogen fluoride, which yields a redox potential. The synthesis of p-tolualdehyde is also known to produce nitrogen atoms. Nuclear DNA analysis revealed that this molecule belongs to group P2, which includes nucleoside monophosphate synthases, phosphoglycerate kinases, and phosphoglycerate mutases.
