1,6-hexanedial - Introduction
Hexadialdehyde, the chemical formula CH3(CH2)3CHO, is also known as valeraldehyde or hexanal. The following is a description of the properties, uses, preparation methods and safety information of adipaldehyde:
Nature:
Hexanedialdehyde is a colorless liquid with a special aldehyde odor. It has a low boiling point and flash point and is soluble in water and most organic solvents. The adipaldehyde is susceptible to oxidation and can form the corresponding carboxylic acid.
Use:
Hexanedialdehyde has a variety of uses in industry and laboratories. It is an important intermediate in the synthesis of other organic compounds, such as alcohols, acids and esters. Adialdehyde is also used as a flavoring and flavoring agent and has a wide range of applications in the food industry, for example in the manufacture of flavors, sweeteners and food preservatives.
Preparation Method:
There are two main methods for preparing hexadialdehyde: one is obtained by the oxidation reaction of hexane, which is an industrial production method; the other is obtained by the oxidation-reduction reaction of hexene, which is a laboratory Commonly used methods.
Safety Information:
Hexanedialdehyde is a toxic substance that can cause irritation and burns in contact with skin and eyes. When using adipaldehyde should be careful to avoid inhalation of its vapor, to ensure good ventilation. When storing and handling adipaldehyde, it is necessary to follow relevant safety procedures and wear appropriate personal protective equipment, such as safety glasses, gloves and protective clothing. If careless inhalation or accidental administration of adipaldehyde, should immediately seek medical attention.
