Propiolaldehyde is an organic compound with molecular formula HC2CHO. It is the simplest chemical compound containing both alkyne and aldehyde functional groups. It is a colorless liquid with explosive properties.[1]
Reactions
The compound exhibits reactions expected for an electrophilic alkynyl aldehyde. It is a dienophile and a good Michael acceptor. Grignard reagents add to the carbonyl center.[1] Its explosive properties are attributed to the exothermicity of its polymerization.[1]
Preparation
Its acetal can be prepared from acrolein.[2]
Occurrence in interstellar medium
Propynal has been observed in the interstellar medium. It is hypothesized to be formed from a carbon monoxide-acetylene complex.[3] Another possible pathway is through the reaction of propynylidyne (C3H) with water.[4]
Hazards
The compound is explosive, possibly because it tends to polymerize.[1]
