Adipaldehyde is the organic compound with the formula (CH2)4(CHO)2. It is a colorless oil that is usually encountered as an aqueous solution because it is highly reactive like many dialdehydes.[1] The compound has attracted interest as a precursor to nylon-related polymers. It can be produced by double hydroformylation of 1,3-butadiene, but this methodology has not achieved commercialization.[2] It has been prepared by oxidation of 1,6-hexanediol with pyridinium chlorochromate.[3]
