CAS 19924-43-7

(3-Methoxyphenyl)acetonitrile

Description:

(3-Methoxyphenyl)acetonitrile, with the CAS number 19924-43-7, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure and the presence of both a methoxy group and a nitrile functional group. It features a phenyl ring substituted at the meta position with a methoxy group (-OCH3) and a cyano group (-C≡N) attached to an acetic acid derivative. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and temperature. It is known for its moderate polarity, which allows it to dissolve in various organic solvents while being less soluble in water. The presence of the nitrile group contributes to its reactivity, making it useful in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, (3-Methoxyphenyl)acetonitrile may exhibit biological activity, although specific applications and effects would depend on further research and context. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as with many nitriles, due to potential toxicity.

3-Methoxyphenylacetonitrile (3MPAN) is a small molecule that has been shown to inhibit the activity of kinases, which are enzymes that transfer phosphate groups from ATP onto other substrates. 3MPAN has been found to be selective for the estrogen receptor alpha (ERα), with little or no effect on ERβ, and shows promise as a potential drug for hormone-dependent breast cancer. It also inhibits fatty acid synthesis and is active against some viruses. 3MPAN binds to the enzyme's ATP binding site and blocks phosphorylation by preventing access of ATP. This prevents DNA synthesis and protein synthesis, leading to cell death.
