3,7-DIMETHYL-2-METHYLENE-OCT-6-ENAL(CAS#22418-66-2)

Introduction

3,7-Dimethyl-2-methylene-6-octenal (DMDC for short) is an organic synthetic compound with certain properties and uses.

Quality:

DMDC is a liquid that is yellow to dark red in appearance. It has a pungent odor, is soluble in alcohol and ether solvents, and is insoluble in water.

Use:

DMDC has a variety of uses in the chemical industry. It is often used as a raw material for spices and aromatics, and is used to blend various flavor enhancers and disinfectants.

Method:

The common preparation method of DMDC is β-resveratrol-catalyzed oxidation of carboxylates. Specifically, the substrate carboxylate can be oxidized with the substrate β-resveratrol in the presence of an appropriate catalyst to obtain the DMDC product.

Safety Information:

The main danger of DMDC is its irritation and flammability. Use and store with caution and avoid contact with skin and eyes. In case of contact, rinse with plenty of water in a timely manner. DMDC is also flammable and should be stored in a cool, ventilated place to avoid contact with open flames and high temperatures.
