4-Hydroxybenzyl cyanide

Description:

4-Hydroxybenzyl cyanide, with the CAS number 14191-95-8, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a hydroxyl group (-OH) and a cyanide group (-CN) attached to a benzyl structure. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow solid and is known for its aromatic properties due to the benzene ring. It is soluble in organic solvents and exhibits moderate stability under standard conditions. The hydroxyl group contributes to its reactivity, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, such as nucleophilic substitutions and electrophilic aromatic substitutions. Additionally, the cyanide group imparts toxicity and requires careful handling due to its potential health hazards. 4-Hydroxybenzyl cyanide may be utilized in organic synthesis and research applications, particularly in the development of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. As with many cyanide-containing compounds, safety precautions are essential when working with this substance to mitigate risks associated with its toxicity.

4-Hydroxyphenylacetonitrile

CAS: 14191-95-8

4-Hydroxyphenylacetonitrile (HPA) is a chemical compound that belongs to the group of nitriles. It is a precursor to the pigment sinalbin, which is found in corynebacterium and related bacteria. HPA has been shown to have an apoptotic effect on human cells, which may be due to its ability to inhibit protein synthesis and induce DNA fragmentation. The synthetic pathway for HPA starts with the conversion of L-phenylalanine into 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvic acid by a wild-type strain or bacterial strain. The 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvic acid is then converted into 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde through polymerase chain reactions or expression plasmids in corynebacterium glutamicum. This molecule can then be transformed into HPA by hydrolysis with hydrochloric acid or enzymatic activity. HPA has also been shown to stimulate
