CAS 22364-68-7: 2-Methylphenylacetonitrile
Description:2-Methylphenylacetonitrile, also known by its IUPAC name 2-(2-methylphenyl)acetonitrile, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of both a nitrile functional group and a methyl-substituted phenyl group. It has a molecular formula that reflects its structure, containing a phenyl ring with a methyl group at the ortho position relative to the acetonitrile group. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and temperature. It is known for its moderate polarity and can participate in various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic additions and substitutions due to the presence of the nitrile group. 2-Methylphenylacetonitrile is utilized in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its handling requires standard safety precautions, as with many organic nitriles, due to potential toxicity and irritant properties. Proper storage conditions are essential to maintain its stability and prevent degradation.
