Uses
p-Tolualdehyde is made by the Vilsmeier reaction employing
toluene and dimethylformamide or the Guttermann–Koch
reaction employing toluene and carbon monoxide. p-Tolualdehyde is used as an intermediate for the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, dyes perfumes and agrochemicals. It is also used as a fixative of flavorings. It is also used as an important organic intermediates, used for spices, triphenylmethane dye synthesis, etc. p-Tolualdehyde may be used as an analytical reference standard for the quantification of the analyte in the following:Air samples using high-performance liquid chromatography with UV detection (HPLC-UV).Mango cultivars using gas chromatography (GC) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS).
