3-Fluoro-2-methylbenzonitrile

Description:

3-Fluoro-2-methylbenzonitrile is an aromatic compound characterized by the presence of a fluorine atom and a nitrile functional group attached to a methyl-substituted benzene ring. Its molecular structure features a benzene ring with a methyl group at the 2-position and a fluorine atom at the 3-position, along with a cyano group (-C≡N) at the 1-position. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its physical state at room temperature. It is known for its moderate polarity due to the presence of the nitrile group, which can engage in hydrogen bonding and dipole interactions. The fluorine atom contributes to its reactivity and can influence the compound's electronic properties, making it useful in various chemical syntheses and applications in pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, 3-fluoro-2-methylbenzonitrile may exhibit specific solubility characteristics in organic solvents, which can be important for its handling and use in laboratory settings.

3-Fluoro-2-methylbenzonitrile is a novel androgen receptor modulator that binds to the androgen receptor with high affinity and selectivity. 3-Fluoro-2-methylbenzonitrile has been shown to have agonistic activity in vivo. It has been proposed as an alternative to testosterone for the treatment of muscle wasting, osteoporosis, and other hormone deficiencies. 3-Fluoro-2-methylbenzonitrile is metabolized by CYP3A4 enzymes, which may be modified to improve its metabolic stability and thus increase its bioavailability. In addition, modifications of 3-fluoro-2-methylbenzonitrile may be made that would improve its pharmacokinetic profile (e.g., naphthalene profiles).
