2-Hydroxy-5-methoxybenzaldehyde is employed to study electroantennogram response of the vine weevil (Otiorhynchus sulcatus F) to a broad range of volatile plant compounds. It plays an important role in the preparation of tetradentate Schiff base compounds. Further, it is used in the preparation 6-methoxy-3-nitro-2H-chromene by using dibutylamine as a reagent.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
