Specification:

?Benzaldehyde (CAS NO.100-52-7) is slightly soluble in water but is miscible in all proportions with alcohol or ether. On standing in air, benzaldehyde oxidizes readily to benzoic acid.?Benzaldehyde (CAS NO.100-52-7) is a chemical compound consisting of a benzene ring with an aldehyde substituent. It is the simplest representative of the aromatic aldehydes and one of the most industrially used members of this family of compounds. Benzaldehyde (CAS NO.100-52-7) is an important component of the scent of almonds, hence its typical odor. It is the primary component of?bitter almond oil extract, and can be extracted from many other natural sources in which it occurs, such as cherry, apricot, and laurel leaves, peach seeds , in a glycoside combined form (amygdalin), in certain nuts and kernels.

?Benzaldehyde (CAS NO.100-52-7) is used as a flavoring material, in the production of cinnamic acid, in the manufacture of malachite green dye, as an ingredient in pharmaceuticals, and as an intermediate in chemical syntheses.While benzaldehyde (CAS NO.100-52-7) is commonly used as a commercial food flavorant (almond flavor) or industrial solvent, it is used chiefly in the synthesis of other organic compounds, ranging from pharmaceuticals to plastic additives. Benzaldehyde (CAS NO.100-52-7) is also an important intermediate for the processing of perfume and flavoring compounds and in the preparation of certain aniline dyes.
