Product Description:
2-Formylbenzoic Acid is a high-purity organic intermediate with the molecular formula C₈H₆O₃. It appears as a light yellow to yellow crystalline powder and is slightly soluble in water but readily soluble in ethanol and other organic solvents. As a key building block in pharmaceutical and fine chemical synthesis, it is widely used in the manufacture of antipyretic and analgesic drugs, dyes, and other specialty chemicals.
Our product features a purity of ≥98%, a stable melting point range, and good solubility in organic media, making it ideal for industrial and laboratory applications. It should be stored in a sealed container under cool, dry, and well-ventilated conditions, away from heat and incompatible substances.
2-Formylbenzoic Acid is commonly applied in the synthesis of pharmaceutical intermediates, organic reagents, and dye precursors. It also serves as a starting material in specialty chemical reactions that require aldehyde and carboxylic acid functional groups.
The product is packaged in 25 kg cardboard drums lined with polyethylene bags to ensure protection against moisture and contamination. Custom packaging options are available based on customer requirements.
