Indole-3-carboxaldehyde (CAS 87-45-6) is a versatile organic intermediate with molecular formula C9H7NO. It is primarily synthesized via the Vilsmeier-Haack formylation of indole or oxidative degradation of specific indole derivatives.
Store in a cool, dry place under inert atmosphere to prevent oxidation. Handle with appropriate PPE due to potential skin irritation and respiratory sensitization risks during industrial processing.
