General description

o-Vanillin is a building block commonly used in the synthesis of schiff-base ligands.

Application

o-Vanillin has been used to study the solvent-free reaction between o-vanillin and p-toluidine using NMR, DSC and XRD analysis. It was used in the synthesis of new ligand for Fe(III) and Al(lII).

Biochem/physiol Actions

o-Vanillin induces DNA damage as detected by comet assay.
