3-Methylthiopropionaldehyde (CAS: 1120-69-8) is a volatile organosulfur intermediate synthesized via hydroformylation of methacrolein or oxidation of thioalcohols. Its molecular formula is C4H8OS, serving as a key precursor in fragrance and agrochemical manufacturing.
Strictly store under inert atmosphere at low temperatures to prevent polymerization. Use appropriate PPE due to high volatility and potential respiratory irritation; avoid direct skin contact and ensure adequate ventilation during handling.
