4-Ethoxybenzonitrile

Description:

4-Ethoxybenzonitrile, with the CAS number 25117-74-2, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure, which includes a benzene ring substituted with an ethoxy group and a nitrile group. The ethoxy group (-OCH2CH3) is attached to the para position of the benzene ring relative to the nitrile (-CN) functional group. 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. 4-Ethoxybenzonitrile is often used in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other fine chemicals. Its properties include a relatively high boiling point and moderate solubility in organic solvents, making it useful in various chemical reactions. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested.

4-Ethoxybenzonitrile is an organic compound that belongs to the group of nitroalkanes. It is a substrate for reductive amination, which is a reaction in which the nitro group on 4-ethoxybenzonitrile is reduced by an amine to form an amide. This reaction can be facilitated by metal catalysts, such as copper(II) acetate and zinc chloride. The reaction yields high selectivity (>90%) with respect to the product formed and has been shown to be more efficient than other reductive amination reactions. 4-Ethoxybenzonitrile has been used as a building block for various compounds, including dyestuffs, pharmaceuticals, and pesticides. 4-Ethoxybenzonitrile is also resistant to tyrosinase due to its lack of electron donating groups on its aromatic ring.
