CAS 16532-79-9

(4-Bromophenyl)acetonitrile

Description:

(4-Bromophenyl)acetonitrile, with the CAS number 16532-79-9, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a bromine atom attached to a phenyl group, which is further connected to an acetonitrile functional group. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and specific conditions. It has a molecular formula that reflects its structure, consisting of a phenyl ring substituted with a bromine atom and a nitrile group (-C≡N) linked to an acetic acid derivative. The presence of the bromine atom imparts unique reactivity, making it useful in various chemical synthesis processes, particularly in the development of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its properties include moderate solubility in organic solvents and relatively low solubility in water, which is common for many nitriles. Safety considerations should be taken into account, as brominated compounds can be hazardous, and appropriate handling and disposal methods should be followed in laboratory settings.
