What is Crotonaldehyde CAS 123-73-9？

Crotonaldehyde is prone to various reactions such as oxidation, reduction, addition, polymerization, etc., and gradually oxidizes into crotonic acid upon contact with air. In addition, the vapor of crotonaldehyde can easily form explosive mixtures with air; Strong reaction with oxidants can cause combustion and explosion when exposed to fire or high heat.
