(decyloxy)acetaldehyde Usage And Synthesis
Physical properties
Decyl oxyacetaldehyde is a colorless viscous liquid. Practically insoluble in water, soluble in alcohol and oils.Sp.Gr. 0.87. B.P, 238℃.
Uses
Interesting in perfume compositions where decyl oxyacetaldehyde may introduce desirable "waxy"-floral petal-notes in above floral types, or it may be a part of a topnote composition which can be Citrusy, floral or aidehydic. It lends power and tenacity to such materials.
Preparation
Decyl oxyacetaldehyde is producedfrom Decanol plus Sodium Methylate. The Acetal which is formed is subsequently reacted with Bromodimethyl acelal. The resulting Acetal is finally hydrolyzed with Oxalic acid to yield the Aldehyde.
