5973-71-7 Usage
Chemical Properties
Clear colorless to yellowish liquid
Uses
3,4-Dimethylbenzaldehyde is used as an additive for resins, agricultural intermediate and for flavor and fragrance, nucleation transparent agent.
General Description
3,4-Dimethylbenzaldehyde (3,4-DMB) is a benzaldehyde derivative. It is the OH radical initiated oxidative degradation product of trimethylbenzene. The rate coefficient of the gas-phase reaction between 3,4-DMB and OH radical is 24.6±4.0×10-12cm3molecule-1s-1. The vibrational analysis of 3,4-DMB based on FT-IR spectra, FT-Raman spectra, ab initio and density functional theory (DFT) calculations have been reported. It is formed as an intermediate during the transformation of furfural into gasoline-range fuels using ZSM(Zeolite Socony Mobil)-5-based catalysts.
Flammability and Explosibility
Nonflammable
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 5973-71-7 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 5,9,7 and 3 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 7 and 1 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 5973-71:
(6*5)+(5*9)+(4*7)+(3*3)+(2*7)+(1*1)=127
127 % 10 = 7
So 5973-71-7 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
