Propanenitrile, 2-amino-

Description:

Propanenitrile, 2-amino-, also known as 2-aminopropanenitrile, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of both an amino group (-NH2) and a nitrile group (-C≡N) attached to a three-carbon chain. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on the temperature and purity. It is soluble in water and polar organic solvents due to the polar nature of the amino and nitrile groups. The presence of the amino group allows for potential hydrogen bonding, which can influence its reactivity and interactions with other molecules. Propanenitrile, 2-amino- is often used in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other nitrogen-containing compounds. Its reactivity can include nucleophilic substitution and addition reactions, making it a versatile building block in synthetic chemistry. Safety precautions should be observed when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested.
