Caproaldehyde, also known as hexanal, is a six-carbon aliphatic aldehyde primarily produced via oxidation of 1-hexanol or hydroformylation of pentene. It serves as a key intermediate in organic synthesis with the molecular formula C6H12O and CAS number 66-25-1.
Requires storage in cool, well-ventilated areas away from oxidizers. Use appropriate PPE to prevent skin contact and inhalation due to potential irritation and flammability hazards.
