DescriptionVanillin, also known as vanillaldehyde or 5-bromovanillin, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as methoxyphenols. Methoxyphenols are compounds containing a methoxy group attached to the benzene ring of a phenol moiety. Vanillin exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to plants to humans. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on Vanillin.
