2-(2-Methoxyphenyl)acetaldehyde, with the CAS number 33567-59-8, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure and aldehyde functional group. It features a methoxy group (-OCH3) attached to a phenyl ring, which is further substituted by an acetaldehyde group (-CHO). This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic structure. The presence of the methoxy group can influence its reactivity and polarity, making it a useful intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, its aromatic nature may contribute to its potential applications in fragrance and flavor industries. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as aldehydes can be irritants and may pose health risks upon exposure.
