m-Anisaldehyde by Research Lab Fine Chem Industries is a high grade reagent. Also known as 3-Methoxybenzaldehyde, this compound is derived from aniline, and it consists of a benzene ring with an aldehyde and a methoxy group. The reagent is available as a liquid which is slightly soluble in water, and soluble in organic solvents. It has a boiling point of 143 C. While it is stable under general conditions, it is incompatible with strong oxidizing agents. CAS No.: 591-31-1 Quantity Provided: 100 ml per bottle Molecular formula: C8H8O2 Molecular weight: 136.15 Assay: minimum 97 % m-Anisaldehyde has a variety of applications in chemical and biological sectors. This reagent has been used to prepare 3-(3-methoxy-phenyl)-1-phenyl-propenone by reaction with benzaldehyde. It is further used as an eluent for mono-13C isotopomers of vanillin in normal phase silica gel chromatography. It also acts as an inhibitor of 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone (NNK) metabolism. Notably, m-Anisaldehyde has significant antifungal activity against Candida sp., including the azole-resistant strains. This reagent is suitable for industrial synthesis of products and research applications.
