- Acetaldehyde,
sometimes known as ethanal, is an organic chemical compound with the
formula CH3CHO or MeCHO.
- Acetaldehyde is a
clear liquid that catches fire fast and has a strong odor.
- Acetaldehyde is
found naturally in many foods such as ripe fruits, cheese and heated
milk. It is also used to make products like insulating foam.
- Acetaldehyde is
miscible in water, alcohol, ether, benzene, gasoline, solvent naphtha,
toluene, xylene, turpentine, acetone, and other
common organic
solvents.
- Acetaldehyde, CH3CHO
is an important intermediate in industrial organic synthesis.
- Acetaldehyde can be
synthesized by various methods including partial oxidation of ethanol or
ethylene , hydration of acetylene and ethanol dehydrogenation
.
- In yoghurt
fermentation, both Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus and
Streptococcus thermophilus have been found to produce
acetaldehyde
- Commercial processes
for the production of acetaldehyde include: the oxidation or
dehydrogenation of ethanol, the addition of water to acetylene, partial
oxidation of hydrocarbons, and the direct oxidation of
ethylene.
- Acetaldehyde is
generated in many metabolic processes and it
therefore occurs in all
living organisms.
- Acetaldehyde (AcH)
is the principal metabolite of ethanol metabolism. It is produced by
enzymatic oxidation with alcohol dehydrogenase, as well as, by
non-alcoholic dehydrogenase systems.
- Acetaldehyde is an
important intermediate in the production of acetic acid, acetic
anhydride, ethyl acetate, peracetic acid,
pentaerythritol, chloral,
glyoxal, alkylamines, and pyridines
- Acetaldehyde is also
used in the manufacture of disinfectants, drugs, perfumes, explosives,
lacquers and varnishes, photographic chemicals, phenolic and urea
resins, rubber accelerators and antioxidants, and room air deodorizers;
acetaldehyde is a pesticide intermediate
- Acetaldehyde is also
used as a solvent in the production of rubber, in tanning of leather, in
the paper industry, as a fruit and fish preservative, as a flavoring
agent, as a denaturant for alcohol and in composition of
fuel.
