Ethylvanillin is the organic compound with the formula (C2H5O)(HO)C6H3CHO. This colourless solid consists of a benzene ring with hydroxyl, ethoxy, and formyl groups on the 4, 3, and 1 positions, respectively.

Preparation

Ethylvanillin is prepared via a multistep process from catechol, beginning with ethylation to give "guethol." This ether condenses with glyoxal to give the corresponding phenylglyoxylic acid derivative, which, after oxidation and decarboxylation, gives ethylvanillin.Karl-Georg Fahlbusch, Franz-Josef Hammerschmidt, Johannes Panten, Wilhelm Pickenhagen, Dietmar Schatkowski, Kurt Bauer, Dorothea Garbe, Horst Surburg Flavors and Fragrances" in Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry, Wiley-VCH, 2005: Weinheim.

Application

As a flavorant, ethylvanillin is about 3x as potent than vanillin and is thus used in the production of chocolate.
