2361B 02500 is referred as ISO VALERALDEHYDE (for synthesis) under Research Lab Fine Chem Industries catalogue. 2361B 02500 ISO VALERALDEHYDE (for synthesis) i is slightly soluble in water but is readily soluble in alcohols and ethers. It is found in many foods as a flavour component at low concentrations. It is used as a reagent in the pharmaceutical and pesticide industries. It has to be handled with care as it is a combustible liquid. It can be synthesized by the hydroformylation of isobutene. It has a malty flavour and is present in chicken, fish, beer, chocolate and tea. Pinacolone is synthesized from iso valeraldehyde which is used in the synthesis of pesticides. Iso valeraldehyde is also used in synthesis of many pharmaceuticals products such as butizide.
