Acetaldehyde (IUPAC systematic name ethanal) is an organic chemical compound with the formula CH 3 CH=O, sometimes abbreviated as MeCH=O. It is a colorless liquid or gas, boiling near room temperature.

In the first one ethanol is oxidized to acetaldehyde by the cytoplasmic alcohol dehydrogenase enzyme (ADH), acetaldehyde is then oxidized to acetic acid by the mitochondrial acetaldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH).

2025年1月21日 · acetaldehyde (CH 3 CHO), an aldehyde used as a starting material in the synthesis of 1-butanol (n-butyl alcohol), ethyl acetate, perfumes, flavourings, aniline dyes, plastics, synthetic rubber, and other chemical compounds. It has been manufactured by the hydration of acetylene and by the oxidation of ethanol (ethyl alcohol).

Acetaldehyde is a significantly more potent toxin than ethanol, and its first metabolite, acetaldehyde, is responsible for at least a portion of ethanol toxicity. Some of the acetaldehyde gets into your bloodstream, causing damage to your membranes and possibly scar tissue.

2024年6月14日 · Acetaldehyde is also known under the systematic name ‘ethanal’. The CAS identification number assigned to the substance is 75-07-0. Its molecular formula is C 2 H 4 O, but the equally correct form CH 3 CHO is more commonly used in notation.

Ethanal is an aldehyde compound found in organic chemistry. Reduction of ethanal (acetaldehyde) to ethane or ethanol can be done by two methods. Clemmensen reagent and Lithium aluminium hydride (LiAlH 4) are used to prepare ethane and ethanol respectively.

2024年8月8日 · Acetaldehyde, also known as ethanal, is an organic chemical compound with the formula CH3CHO. It is a volatile, low-boiling, and highly flammable liquid characterized by its strong odor.

Acetaldehyde, sometimes known as ethanal, is an organic chemical compound with the formula C H 3 CHO (or MeCHO). It is a flammable liquid with a fruity smell. It occurs naturally in ripe fruit, coffee, and fresh bread and is produced by plants as part of their normal metabolism. It is perhaps best known as the chemical that causes "hangovers."

2025年1月27日 · Acetaldehyde is also known as ethanal, acetaldehyde is miscible with H2O, alcohol, or ether in all proportions. Because of its versatile chemical reactivity, acetaldehyde is widely used as a commencing material in organic syntheses, including the production of resins, dyestuffs, and explosives.

Acetaldehyde, also known as ethanal, ethyl aldehyde, acetic aldehyde, and methanal methyl, is a simple aldehyde with the molecular formula C2H4O. This colourless liquid is an important solvent in a variety of industrial processes.
