(E)-4-Oxohex-2-enal (CAS 2492-43-5) is an aldehyde building block of formula C6H8O2, supplied in kilogram lots.

Condensation chemistry starts here. The alpha hydrogens are acidic enough for enamine and enolate work, and the carbonyl itself takes the nucleophile. The name fixes the geometry at C4, so the entry is a defined isomer rather than a mixture and the lot is qualified on that isomer.

The formula C6H8O2 resolves to 6 carbons with 2 oxygens. Short-chain entries of this size are volatile enough that headspace and packing matter: the lot is shipped in sealed units and opened in a fume hood.

Handling and storage

Aldehydes oxidise in air. The container is kept closed with a small headspace, and the lot is used soon after opening.

Ordering

Shipped in 1kg / 25kg / 100kg units with a batch certificate of analysis and a GHS safety data sheet; a smaller sample can be quoted separately. Release testing covers identity and assay; the impurity profile is available on request rather than being printed on this page.
