Uses
Other comments :
Salicylaldehyde is produced by certain insects.
Stability :
Aldehydes may form diethylacetals in alcoholic perfumes, with no real impact on their smell
Most of the time, the occurrence of a benzenic cycle in a molecule causes a coloration of this molecule through time
Uses in perfumery :
Salicylaldehyde is used in warm, almond and coumarinic notes.
Year of discovery :
Data not available.
Isomerism :
The ortho and meta positional isomers of Salicylaldehyde are little used in perfumery, although they also have a bitter almond, very hot, balsamic and sweet smell.
Synthesis precursor :
Salicylaldehyde is the main precursor to Coumarin synthesis by a Perkin reaction with acetic anhydride. It can also form a Schiff base by reaction with Methyl Anthranilate or Indole for example.
Natural availability :
Salicylaldehyde is found naturally in small quantities in Ceylon Cinnamon EO.
Synthesis route :
Salicylaldehyde is synthesized by a Reimer-Tiemann reaction, reacting phenol with potash and chloroform. Then, the aldehyde function implants in the ortho position with respect to the alcohol function.
