Acetaldehyde (C2H4O)

This is a fairly simple aldehyde (second in the analogous series after formaldehyde) that is found in the atmosphere as a result of emissions from the manufacture of acetic acid, plastics, raw materials, and as a product in some polluted air oxidation reactions. [Food Control; v18; 988-995; 2007.]
