Preparation | 2-ethylbutenal is an α,β-unsaturated aldehyde. Acetaldehyde and n-butyraldehyde can react to prepare a mixture of β-unsaturated aldehydes, and the main product is 2-ethylbutyraldehyde. α,β-unsaturated aldehydes have attracted great interest from chemists because of their rich fragrance, special structure and many meaningful chemical reactions. |
