Veratraldehyde (3,4-dimethoxybenzaldehyde) is an organic compound with the formula Template:Chem2. Several isomers are known. The compound is widely used as a flavorant and odorant. The compound is structurally related to benzaldehyde, with two methoxy groups.
This compound is popular commercially because of its pleasant woody fragrance. It is derivative of vanillin, from which it is prepared by methylation.[1] It can be obtained by chemical degradation of lignin.[2]
Uses
Veratraldehyde can be used as an intermediate in the synthesis of some pharmaceutical drugs including amiquinsin, hoquizil, piquizil, prazosin, quinazoline, tiapamil, toborinone, verazide, and vetrabutine.Script error: No such module "Unsubst".
