Introduction
2,5-Dimethoxybenzaldehyde (2,5-DMBA) is a benzaldehyde derivative with significant applications in pharmaceuticals, organic synthesis, and psychoactive drug production. It serves as a precursor for 2,5-dimethoxyphenethylamine (2C-H), which is further utilized to synthesize substituted phenethylamines like 2C-B, 2C-I, and 2C-C. Structurally, it features two methoxy groups at the 2 and 5 positions of a benzaldehyde backbone, contributing to its reactivity and solubility in organic solvents. Industrial synthesis typically involves methylation of hydroxy-methoxybenzaldehyde using sulfuric acid dimethyl ester in alkaline conditions. Safety considerations include its irritant properties (Xi) and potential to cause respiratory and skin sensitization (R36/37/38, R43). Storage requires protection from light and moisture, and handling mandates respiratory and eye protection due to its hazardous nature.
Usage: Used as Pharmaceutical intermediates.
Packaging and Shipping: 25KG/drum or as per buyer requirements.
Storage: Store in a well-ventilated place. Keep container tightly closed. Store separately from oxidants and food additives.
