Author: Apeksha Motghare

Crotonaldehyde appears as a clear, colorless to pale yellow liquid with a strong and suffocating odor. It is also known as 2-Butenal and 3-Methylacrolein. At room temperature it is extremely flammable and produces toxic vapors. Crotonaldehyde can be found naturally in emissions of specific vegetation and volcanoes and also many in foods in small amounts. Commercially crotonaldehyde is produced by aldol condensation from acetaldehyde. It has poor solubility in water. But it is easily soluble in organic solvents including alcohols and ether. Crotonaldehyde is mostly used in the manufacture of crotonic acid and sorbic acid by oxidation.

It is also used to detect gas leaks in pipes. Owing to solid bond within C-4 chain and bi-functional group of aldehyde, crotonaldehyde is effectually used as a starting product in many organic reactions and synthesis.

Crotonaldehyde is majorly used as a precursor to fine chemicals. Crotonaldehyde is also used in the production of quinaldines, thiophenes, pharmaceuticals, pyridines, dyes and pesticides. Crotonaldehyde has application in the production of crotonic acid and is used as a flow-promoting agent and comonomer for alkyd resins.

Crotonaldehyde is used as a warming agent in fuel gases and in organic synthesis as a solvent. In the agricultural industry, it is used for crop protection and when reacted with urea forms crotonylidene ureas— a slow-release fertilizer.

Crotonaldehyde Market Outlook – Rising Demand in Chemicals and allied Industries to be the Major Market Driver Asia Pacific and North America are expected to be the most potential markets for crotonaldehyde manufacturers. According to IBEF, the Indian leather industry holds a major share of around 12.93 per cent of the total world’s leather production of hides/skins. During April 2016-January 2017 leather and leather goods worth US$ 4.72 billion were exported from India. The estimated size of Indian chemicals sector stands at approximately US$ 139 billion. India is the seventh largest producer of chemicals in the world worldwide and third largest producer in Asia. In 2015-2016 the total production of the major chemicals including petrochemicals was 23.9 million tons. The Indian chemicals industry has attracted various foreign investors such as Akzo Nobel, BASF, ADEKA, Mitsubishi Chemicals Corporation, Syngenta, DuPont, Henkel, Croda, Wacker Metroark, DyStar, and Rhodla. India Brand Equity Foundation (IBEF) is a Trust established by the Ministry of Commerce and Industry, Department of Commerce in collaboration with the Government of India with the purpose of promoting and creating international awareness of goods manufactured in India.
