Introduction

12-Methyltridehydehyde, also known as lauraldehyde, is an organic compound. The following is an introduction to its properties, uses, manufacturing methods and safety information:

Quality:

12-Methyltridedehyde is a colorless to yellow liquid with a special aldehyde odor. It is insoluble in water at room temperature and soluble in organic solvents such as alcohols and ethers.

Use:

12-Methyltridedehyde is mainly used as a raw material in the flavor and fragrance industry. It is able to provide a variety of scents such as floral, fruity, and soapy.

Method:

The preparation of 12-methyltridecaldehyde is usually obtained by the reaction of tridecyl bromide with formaldehyde. Tridecyl bromide can be obtained by the reaction of oleic acid and bromine in the presence of acetic acid, and then condensation reaction with formaldehyde to form 12-methyltridecadehyde.
