DescriptionPropanal, also known as N-propionaldehyde or C2H5CHO, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as alpha-hydrogen aldehydes. These are aldehydes with the general formula HC(H)(R)C(=O)H, where R is an organyl group. Propanal is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Propanal exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans.
