CAS 143912-49-6

Benzonitrile, 2-hydroxy-5-(1-methylethyl)- (9CI)

Description:

Benzonitrile, 2-hydroxy-5-(1-methylethyl)-, also known by its CAS number 143912-49-6, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a benzonitrile moiety with a hydroxyl group and an isopropyl substituent. This compound features a benzene ring bonded to a nitrile group (–C≡N) and a hydroxyl group (–OH) at the ortho position relative to the nitrile, along with an isopropyl group at the meta position. The presence of the hydroxyl group imparts polar characteristics, making it more soluble in polar solvents compared to non-polar solvents. This compound may exhibit various chemical properties, including potential reactivity due to the nitrile and hydroxyl functionalities, which can participate in hydrogen bonding and nucleophilic reactions. Its structural features suggest potential applications in organic synthesis, pharmaceuticals, or as an intermediate in chemical manufacturing. However, specific applications and safety data should be referenced from material safety data sheets or relevant literature for comprehensive handling and usage guidelines.
