Anisic aldehyde undergoes a very slight degree of demethylation with oxidation of its aldehyde group to an acid group, the major metabolite excreted being anisic
acid (Williams, 1959). | [Purification Methods]
Wash the aldehyde with saturated aqueous NaHCO3, then H2O, steam distil, extract the distillate with Et2O, dry (MgSO4) the extract, filter and distil this under a vacuum and N2. Store it in glass ampules under N2 in the dark. [Beilstein 8 IV 252.] |
Questions And Answer | Back Directory | [description]
p-Anisaldehyde, also known as anisaldehyde or 4-methoxybenzaldehyde, is a colorless to light yellow liquid at room temperature. It has an odor that is similar to hawthorn. It is insoluble in water, with a solubility of only 0.3%, but it is slightly soluble in propylene glycol and glycerol. It is easily soluble in ethanol, ethyl ether, acetone, chloroform, and most organic solvents. Anisicaldehyde can also be volatilized with water vapor. Anisicaldehyde occurs naturally in fennel oil, cumin oil, dill oil, acacia flowers, and balsam pear extract. It is obtained through oxidation separation and extraction processes. This compound is commonly used as a fragrance base for hawthorn, sunflower, lilac, and other scents. It is also used as a blending spice for scents like freshly cut grass, silver and white acacia flowers, acacia, and balsam grass. Additionally, anisicaldehyde serves as an auxiliary agent for lily of the valley fragrance and a modifier for osmanthus fragrance. | [Chemical Properties]

| [Uses]
p-Anisaldehyde is the main body of floral perfumes for the deployment of Hawthorn. It can also be used for lilac, orchid, sunflower, acacia, shy flower, black locust, magnolia, wallflowers and sweet bean curd and other floral and new treasure, Hong Wei, aldehyde and other non-fragrant flower essences. It can also be used for other heavy woody sandalwood flavor as well as used in soap flavor. Its sweetness is used in the food and to reconcile flavor. p-Anisaldehyde has a persistent aroma of hawthorn. It is used as the main spice in hawthorn flowers, sunflower, lilac flavor; Lily of the valley as a flavoring agent in flavor; it can also be used as modifier in the sweet-scented osmanthus flavor as well as for daily flavors and food flavor. The product is allowed for the temporary use of edible spices under China GB2760-86 provisions. It is mainly used for mint flavor of preparation of vanilla, incense and spice, apricot, cream, fennel, caramel, cherry, chocolate, walnuts, raspberry, strawberry, etc. The effect is very good when cooperating with the orange essential oil. As an excellent bright agent for non-cyanide zinc plating DE additive, it can improve the anodic polarization over a wide current range, get bright coating, to create favorable conditions for environmental protection. Anti-microbial drugs cefadroxil benzyl penicillin derived from anisaldehyde in the pharmaceutical industry for the manufacture is an intermediate of antihistamine drugs. It can be used for the preparation and organic synthesis of perfume. | [Content Analysis]
0.8g of anisaldehyde is accurately weighed, and determined according to the method of aldehyde and ketone determination (OT-7) or the method of determination of two or aldehyde (OT-6).The time of the reactional placement for samples and control samples are 1.5 minutes respectively. Calculation of the equivalent factor (E) is to take 68.08. Or it can be measured by gas chromatography (GT-10-4) nonpolar column method.

FEMA (mg/kg): Soft drinks 6.3; cold drink 5.6; candy 14; baked goods 16; puddings class from 0.5 to 30; gum from 18 to 76.Moderate limit(FDA§172.515,2000).The concentration of the final product is generally 5~30mg/kg.
| [Production method]
It can be obtained through p-cresol methyl ether from the p-cresol by methylation and then oxidation by adding manganese dioxide and sulfuric acid. Or it is derived from the oxidation of anisole.
Anise aldehyde is mainly included in anise oil, fennel oil, dill oil, gold Albizia julibrissin oil, vanilla extract, etc. When extracted from natural raw materials, it is oxidated by ozone, nitric acid, potassium permanganate, sodium dichromate or sulfuric acid, in the presence of p-Aminobenzene Sulfonic. It can also be obtained as follows: Anethole is Isolated from the essential oil, then decomposed by yellow blood salt, water, sodium bisulfite and other appropriate decomposing agent, cutting off the allyl double bond and generating anise aldehyde. According to the method, the yield was 60%. It had been discovered and synthesized before it has been isolated from the essential oil. The product can be prepared to take from phenol and anisole, cresol ether, preparation of p-hydroxybenzaldehyde and other raw materials. Using dimethyl sulfate for methylation of phenol, followed by chloromethylation reaction Fennel introducing chloromethyl ether and Urotropine with salt, and then hydrolyzed to chloromethyl into aldehyde (Suo Mulai reaction) to prepare p-methoxy benzaldehyde. Another promising approach is to turn on the methylation of toluene, the formation of methyl phenyl ether, and then oxidation to obtain the production. In foreign countries, the current method is using oxidating p-methyl anisole in sulfuric acid in the presence of the oxidizing agent such as potassium dichromate, potassium permanganate and manganese dioxide.
