4-Chloro-3-methoxybenzaldehyde is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure, featuring a benzaldehyde functional group with a chlorine atom and a methoxy group attached to the aromatic ring. The presence of the chloro substituent at the para position and the methoxy group at the meta position significantly influences its chemical reactivity and physical properties. This compound typically appears as a pale yellow to light brown liquid or solid, depending on its purity and form. It is known for its distinctive aromatic odor and is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether, but has limited solubility in water. 4-Chloro-3-methoxybenzaldehyde is utilized in various applications, including as an intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and dyes. Its reactivity can be attributed to the aldehyde group, which can participate in nucleophilic addition reactions, while the chloro and methoxy groups can influence electrophilic substitution reactions on the aromatic ring. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound due to its potential irritant properties.
