2,4-Dimethylbenzaldehyde Usage And Synthesis
Description 2,4-dimethylbenzaldehyde is one isomer of dimethylbenzaldehyde. It can be used as a flavoring agent and pharmacological intermediate. It can be manufactured through the reaction between m-xylene and CO under the catalysis of powdery and anhydrous AlCl3.
