Description

4-Methoxybenzaldehyde dimethyl acetal is used as a precursor to 1-methoxy-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)hept-2-yne, 2,5-dioxopyrrolidin-1-yl-3-((4R)-2-(4-methoxyphenyl)-5,5-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-4-carboxamido)propanoate and 1-(p-anisyl)-2-(2-methoxyethyl)-3-phenylindene. Further, it acts as a protecting group reagent for diols, especially in carbohydrates. It is also used as a flavor essence in sunflower, cyclamen and in jasmine. In addition to this, it is involved in allylation reactions with allyltrimethylsilane catalyzed by Iron(III) chloride.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand.
