Butyraldehyde

Butyraldehyde, or butanal, is a colorless, flammable liquid with a pungent odor, having the chemical formula CH₃(CH₂)₂CHO. It is primarily manufactured through the hydroformylation of propylene. A significant portion of its industrial use is as an intermediate in the production of other chemicals. For instance, it is a key component in synthesizing synthetic resins, rubber accelerators, and plasticizers, such as bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate. Butyraldehyde is also used to create n-butanol, a common solvent, and serves as a synthetic flavoring agent in products like beverages, ice cream, candy, and baked goods.

It will make the broken part even stronger.I decided to go with the ball-and-stick type, as it is easiest to color, is rigid, and looks awesome.The model represents the major resonance contributor.I oriented the model
