4-(1-Methylethyl)benzonitrile

Description:

4-(1-Methylethyl)benzonitrile, also known as p-isopropylbenzonitrile, is an organic compound characterized by a benzene ring substituted with a nitrile group (-C≡N) and an isopropyl group (-C(CH₃)₂) at the para position. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its physical state at room temperature. It is known for its aromatic properties and is often used in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of various chemicals. The presence of the nitrile group contributes to its reactivity, making it useful in nucleophilic addition reactions. Additionally, the isopropyl group influences its solubility and boiling point, generally making it more hydrophobic. Safety data indicates that it should be handled with care, as it may pose health risks upon exposure. Overall, 4-(1-Methylethyl)benzonitrile is a valuable compound in the field of organic chemistry, particularly in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals.

4-Isopropylbenzonitrile (4IPB) is a reactive molecule that can be used to generate nitro radicals. It is a good candidate for the generation of nitro radicals because it has a redox potential that is near the center of the range encompassed by reactions with hydrogen peroxide. 4IPB also reacts with halogenated compounds, such as haloalkyls, which are efficient methods for generating nitro radicals. The reactivity of 4IPB can be demonstrated through assays using nitro and radical chain reactions. Hyperbolic plots of c1-6 alkyl and c1-4 alkyl in acidic media show that 4IPB is more reactive than other molecules in this class, such as mda-mb-231 cell and tyrosinase.
