Butyraldehyde, also known as butanal, is an organic compound with the formula CH 3 (CH 2) 2 CHO. This compound is the aldehyde derivative of butane. It is a colorless flammable liquid with an unpleasant smell. It is miscible with most organic solvents.
Isovaleraldehyde organic compound, also known as 3-methylbutanal, with the formula (CH 3) 2 CHCH 2 CHO. It is an aldehyde, a colorless liquid at STP, [1] and found in low concentrations in many types of food. [2] Commercially it is used as a reagent for the production of pharmaceuticals, perfumes and pesticides. [3]
Crotonaldehyde is produced by the aldol condensation of acetaldehyde: 2 CH 3 CHO → CH 3 CH=CHCHO + H 2 O. Crotonaldehyde is a multifunctional molecule that exhibits diverse reactivity. It is a prochiral dienophile. [5] It is a Michael acceptor. Addition of methylmagnesium chloride produces 3-penten-2-ol. [6]
Conversion of acetaldehyde to 1,1-diethoxyethane, R 1 = CH 3 R 2 = CH 3 CH 2 Acetaldehyde forms a stable acetal upon reaction with ethanol under conditions that favor dehydration. The product, CH 3 CH(OCH 2 CH 3 ) 2 , is formally named 1,1-diethoxyethane but is commonly referred to as "acetal". [ 39 ]
Diacetyl (/ d aɪ j ə ˈ s iː t ə l / dy-yuh-SEE-tuhl; IUPAC systematic name: butanedione or butane-2,3-dione) is an organic compound with the chemical formula (CH 3 CO) 2. It is a yellow liquid with an intensely buttery flavor. It is a vicinal diketone (two C=O groups, side-by-side).
Hydrogenation of 3-hydroxybutanal gives 1,3-butanediol: CH 3 CH(OH)CH 2 CHO + H 2 → CH 3 CH(OH)CH 2 CH 2 OH. This diol is a precursor to 1,3-butadiene, precursor to diverse polymers. Polymerization of 3-hydroxybutanal is also spontaneous, but can be stopped with the addition of water. Aldol has been used in making perfumes and in ore ...
CH 3 CH=CH 2 + H 2 O + 2 CO → CH 3 CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 OH + CO 2. In former times, butanol was prepared from crotonaldehyde, which can be obtained from acetaldehyde. Butanol can also be produced by fermentation of biomass by bacteria. Prior to the 1950s, Clostridium acetobutylicum was used in industrial fermentation to produce butanol. Research in ...
