Uses
2-Ethylhexanal is used as an intermediate for chemical synthesis?and in the production of pharmaceuticals and odorous substances. 2-Ethylhexanal may be used as an analytical standard for the determination of the analyte in the atmosphere of charcoal plants by high-performance liquid chromatography and UV detection. It may also be used as an internal standard for the determination of the analyte from wood pellets(6) by chromatography-based techniques. Organic synthesis, perfumes.
