| Common Name | 3-Methylbenzaldehyde |
|---|
| Description | 3-Methylbenzaldehyde, also known as 3-tolylaldehyde, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as benzoyl derivatives. These are organic compounds containing an acyl moiety of benzoic acid with the formula (C6H5CO-). 3-Methylbenzaldehyde exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. 3-Methylbenzaldehyde is a sweet, benzaldehyde, and cherry tasting compound. 3-Methylbenzaldehyde has been detected, but not quantified, in several different foods, such as sweet cherries, alcoholic beverages, garden tomato, coffee and coffee products, and tea. This could make 3-methylbenzaldehyde a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. A tolualdehyde compound with the methyl substituent at the 3-position. |
