Applications & Uses

Uses

4-Butoxybenzaldehyde has been used in the synthesis of:6-amino-4-(4-butoxyphenyl)-3,5-dicyanopyridine-2(1H)-thione16-(p-butoxybenzylidene)androsta-1,4-diene-3,17-dione via condensation reaction with androsta-1,4-diene-3,17-dione

General Description

Kinetic constant for the inhibition of the diphenolase activity of mushroom tyrosinase by 4-butoxybenzaldehyde has been evaluated.
