Tridecanal is an organic compound with the formula CH₃(CH₂)₁₁CHO. A colorless oily liquid, it is the aldehyde derivative of tridecane. It is produced by hydroformylation of 1-dodecene. Hydrogenation of tridecanal gives 1-tridecanol.

Occurrence and use

It is used as a fragrance and is well-tolerated. ^[1] It is a trace component emitted from the combustion of diesel fuel and exposure of synthetic carpets to ozone. ^{[2] [3]}
