Benzaldehyde is a colorless liquid with an almond-like odor, primarily synthesized via the hydrolysis of benzyl chloride or toluene oxidation. Its molecular formula is C7H6O (CAS No. 100-52-7), serving as a fundamental building block in organic synthesis.
Store in tightly sealed containers away from oxidizers to prevent peroxide formation. Handle with appropriate PPE due to flammability and potential skin irritation; avoid inhalation of vapors.
