Overview
Dodecanal is a long-chain fatty aldehyde that is dodecane in which two hydrogens attached to a terminal carbon are replaced by an oxo group. It has a role as a plant metabolite. It is a medium-chain fatty aldehyde, a long-chain fatty aldehyde and a 2,3-saturated fatty aldehyde. It derives from a hydride of a dodecane.
