Palladium chloride is employed industrially in the catalytic oxidation of ethylene to acetaldehyde in the presence of cupric chloride.
Researchers at Japan's National Institute for Public Health said they had found two carcinogens - formaldehyde and acetaldehyde – in vapour produced by several types of e-cigarettes during a study commissioned by the country's health ministry.
By adjusting the oxygen content, the flor yeast may be induced to develop and produce acetaldehyde in a submerged culture, a process used commercially in California.
It is prepared industrially in either of two ways: by atmospheric oxidation of acetaldehyde in the presence of a metal acetate; and from acetic acid by reaction with acetylene or ketene.
c Acetaldehyde in caustic media with addition of arginine.
Inclusion of acetaldehyde in the reaction produces deoxyribose (Oró 1965).
b Acetaldehyde in caustic media without addition of compound in 24 h.

The as-sprayed TiO2 coating was photocatalytically reactive for degradation of acetaldehyde in air.
Crotonaldehyde is an important intermediate in the chemical industry and usually produced from acetaldehyde in aqueous solution.
The spectrometer performance is benchmarked by measuring the pure rotational spectrum of several isotopologues of acetaldehyde in natural abundance.
