Isovaleraldehyde, also known as 3-methylbutanal, is a branched-chain aliphatic aldehyde primarily synthesized via the hydroformylation of isobutylene. It serves as a critical intermediate in organic synthesis with the molecular formula C5H10O and CAS number 78-83-1.
Strictly store in cool, ventilated areas away from oxidizers due to high flammability. Avoid direct contact as it causes severe skin irritation and respiratory sensitization; use appropriate PPE during handling.
