Description

4-(Methylthio)benzaldehyde is a high-grade reagent supplied by Research Lab Fine Chem Industries. Other chemical names which are used to denote this reagent include, Benzaldehyde, 4-(methylthio)-, 4-Methylmercaptobenzaldehyde, 4-(Methylsulfanyl)benzaldehyde and P-(Methylthio)benzaldehyde. It is available in the form of a clear, yellow liquid. It is stable as long it is stored as per the recommended storage conditions. Burning or prolonged exposure to heat or flammable sources may produce hazardous decomposition products like carbon oxides and sulphur oxides. It is incompatible with materials like strong oxidizing agents and strong bases. CAS No. 3446-89-7 Quantity provided: 25 gm/bottle Molecular formula: C8H8OS Molecular weight: 152.211 g/mol Assay: Minimum 97%Benzaldehydes are mainly used in the synthesis of other organic compounds, ranging from pharmaceuticals to plastic additives, it is an important intermediate for the processing of perfume and flavouring compounds and in the preparation of certain aniline dyes. It undergoes simultaneous oxidation and reduction with alcoholic potassium hydroxide, giving potassium benzoate and benzyl alcohol. 4-(Methylthio)Benzaldehyde is used as an intermediate for manufacturing pharmaceuticals, pesticides and other organic compounds. It can also be used for the synthesis of sulphur-containing terpyridine ligands. It is the intermediate for the synthesis of a class of pyrrole derivatives showing analgesic/anti-inflammatory activity.
