CAS 142253-58-5: 1-Boc-3-(cyanomethyl)azetidine

Description: 1-Boc-3-(cyanomethyl)azetidine is a chemical compound characterized by its azetidine ring structure, which is a four-membered saturated heterocycle containing one nitrogen atom. The "Boc" (tert-butyloxycarbonyl) group is a common protecting group for amines, indicating that the nitrogen in the azetidine is protected to prevent unwanted reactions during synthetic processes. The presence of the "cyanomethyl" group suggests that there is a cyano (-CN) functional group attached to a methylene (-CH2-) unit, which can impart unique reactivity and properties to the compound. This structure makes it a valuable intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the development of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The compound is typically a solid at room temperature and may exhibit polar characteristics due to the cyano group. Its reactivity can be influenced by the presence of both the Boc and cyano groups, making it a versatile building block in synthetic chemistry. Safety and handling precautions should be observed due to the potential toxicity associated with cyanide derivatives.
