Отримання й хімія
Спосіб отримання
Piperonal can be prepared by the oxidative cleavage of isosafrole or by using a multistep sequence from catechol or 1,2-methylenedioxybenzene. Synthesis from 1,2-methylenedioxybenzene is accomplished through a condensation reaction with glyoxylic acid followed by cleaving the resulting α-hydroxy acid with an oxidizing agent. Synthesis from catechol requires an additional step, Williamson ether synthesis using dichloromethane.

У парфумерії
Piperonal is commonly used to add vanilla or almond nuances, generally imparting balsamic, powdery, and floral aspects to a scent's character. Piperonal is used in powdery accords and also in florals such as muguet, carnation and lilac. Piperonal gives softness and creaminess. In flavors it adds hay-like, floral and powdery notes to a wide range of food preparations. Piperonal is used heavily in French vanilla flavors, in part as a replacement for coumarin which is no longer GRAS.
