| | 3-Ethylbenzaldehyde Usage And Synthesis |
| Description |
3-Ethylbenzaldehyde is a natural compound that is found in the essential oils of plants such as Capsicum annuum and Cinnamomum zeylanicum.
| | Uses | 3-Ethylbenzaldehyde has been used as a bioassay for the presence of fatty acids in laminar magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) studies on cordata.
| | Biological Activity | 3-Ethylbenzaldehyde has been shown to have antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive bacteria, including Staphylococcus aureus, and Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
| | Synthesis | General procedure for the synthesis of 3-ethylbenzaldehyde from m-bromobenzaldehyde and triethylboron: To a suspension containing m-bromobenzaldehyde (0.370 g, 2.00 mmol), Pd(dppf)Cl2 (14.6 mg, 20.0 μmol), and CsOAc (0.384 g, 2.00 mmol), protected by argon, triethylborane (1.00 M in THF, 2.00 mL, 2.00 mmol) and THF (3.0 mL). The mixture was heated to reflux and held for 6 hours. After completion of the reaction, it was cooled to room temperature, diluted with ether, washed sequentially with saturated aqueous NaHCO3 and brine, dried over anhydrous Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated in vacuum. The residue was purified by silica gel fast column chromatography to afford 3-ethylbenzaldehyde (0.123 g, 0.920 mmol, 46% yield) as a colorless oil.1H-NMR (CDCl3, 400 MHz) δ: 1.28 (t, J = 7.2 Hz, 3H, -CH3), 2.74 (q, J = 7.2 Hz, 2H, -CH2-), 7.42 -7.48 (m, 2H, Ar-H), 7.69-7.72 (m, 2H, Ar-H), 10.0 (s, 1H, -CHO); the data are consistent with those reported in the literature (Wang et al., 2009). | | References | [1] Phytochemistry, 2013, vol. 96, p. 132 - 147
