Isophthalaldehyde (CAS: 121-50-8; C8H6O2) is an aromatic dialdehyde synthesized via selective oxidation of m-xylene or catalytic dehydrogenation. It serves as a critical intermediate in polymer and dye manufacturing.
Store in sealed containers under inert atmosphere to prevent oxidation. Use appropriate PPE including respiratory protection due to potential sensitization risks. Avoid direct contact with skin and eyes.
