methyl 4-formylbicyclo[2.2.2]octane-1-carboxylate; CAS No.: 94994-25-9; methyl 4-formylbicyclo[2.2.2]octane-1-carboxylate. PROPERTIES: This formyl-substituted bicyclic ester features molecular formula C??H??O? with molecular weight 180.20 g/mol. It generally appears as a white crystalline powder. Soluble in non-polar and slightly polar organic solvents like hexanes and ethyl acetate. Melting point approximately 90-95 C. Exhibits IR absorption for ester (~1750 cm??) and aldehyde groups (~2800-2600 cm??). Thermogravimetric analysis reveals weight loss onset above 150 C under nitrogen. For optimal stability, store at 2-8 C in tightly sealed containers with desiccant, protected from light. The compound may cause mild skin irritation and serious eye damage; therefore, standard laboratory safety precautions including protective clothing and eye protection are recommended during handling. APPLICATIONS: As a formyl-substituted bicyclic ester, methyl 4-formylbicyclo[2.2.2]octane-1-carboxylate is predominantly utilized in the synthesis of flavor and fragrance compounds. It serves as a key intermediate in constructing macrocyclic musk fragrances, where the formyl group provides valuable sites for further functionalization as demonstrated in fragrance chemistry research (Perfumer & Flavorist). Additionally, the compound participates in the development of fluorescent probes for bioimaging applications, where its aldehyde functionality enables conjugation to biomolecules via Schiff base formation (Bioconjugate Chemistry). In materials science, it functions as a monomer for preparing polyurethane foams with enhanced thermal stability, where the formyl group contributes to improved crosslinking density and mechanical properties (Polymer International).
