Basic Info

Veratraldehyde, also known as 3,4-dimethoxybenzaldehyde, is an important organic chemical raw material and fragrance intermediate. Its molecular form is C9H10O3, with an appearance of white to light yellow powder or crystals. The aroma is similar to that of vanillin but more woody.

Veratraldehyde melts between 43 and 45 degrees Celsius. It is almost insoluble in water at room temperature, but soluble in oils, hot water and ethanol. Oils such as Javanese Lemongrass and Houttuynia Cordata contain natural products. Veratraldehide can be found naturally in certain plants, such as Veratrum.
It can also obtained by chemical synthesis. It is widely used in essences, medicine, pesticides, food preparation, cosmetic fragrance, or as a synthesis precursor.

Veratraldehyde can also be used as a pharmaceutical intermediate for the production of drugs such as prazosin, verapamil (an antiarrhythmic), levonorgestrel (anti-inflammatory, antiasthmatic) and carbidopa.


Veratraldehyde is a fixative that has a unique aroma. It’s used in many high-end scents, including baked goods and tobacco. It is also used in the organic synthesis of drugs such as antihypertensive substances or photosensitive materials. Veratraldehyde can cause irritation and should never be used directly on the skin or in contact with eyes. It should be stored in a cool, dark place to maintain its stability.

Product Packaging

Veratraldehyde


The application areas of Veratraldehyde are very extensive, including:

1. Food industry
Essence and spice: As the main component of vanilla flavor, Veratraldehide is widely used in ice cream, chocolate, candy, baked goods, beverages, etc. Used as a seasoning to enhance or modify the flavor of food, especially common in dairy products and desserts.

2. Veratraldehyde is an organic synthetic intermediate. The pharmaceutical industry uses it to synthesize the drug methyldopa and also to produce the veterinary drug sulfonamide synergist Diclofenac. This veterinary drug is added to feed at a rate of 0.02% by weight to enhance the effectiveness of the iodine amine added to the feed, and is used to prevent and treat bacterial infections in household food.

3. Veratraldehyde, as a pharmaceutical intermediate, is mainly used in the synthesis of antibiotics. It can be used to synthesize antihypertensive drug prazosin hydrochloride, antiarrhythmic drug verapamil, anti-inflammatory anti asthmatic drug rivastigmine, as well as carbidopa, verapamil, and other drugs.

4. Daily chemicals and perfume
Cosmetics/skin care products: Veratraldehide is used as a essence ingredient to give the product a mild vanilla flavor, which is commonly found in lotion, soaps, shampoos, etc. In perfume, as a middle note or keynote ingredient, it is blended with other spices to form a complex fragrance.
