:

3-Fluoro-4-methylphenylacetonitrile

Description:
3-Fluoro-4-methylphenylacetonitrile, identified by its CAS number 261951-73-9, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a nitrile functional group attached to a phenyl ring that has both a fluorine and a methyl substituent. This compound typically exhibits a colorless to pale yellow appearance and is soluble in organic solvents. The presence of the fluorine atom can influence its chemical reactivity and polarity, potentially enhancing its lipophilicity compared to non-fluorinated analogs. The nitrile group contributes to its overall stability and can participate in various chemical reactions, such as nucleophilic additions. Additionally, the compound may exhibit interesting biological activities, making it of interest in pharmaceutical research. Its synthesis often involves the introduction of the fluorine and methyl groups onto the phenyl ring, followed by the formation of the acetonitrile moiety. As with many nitriles, it is important to handle this compound with care due to potential toxicity and environmental considerations.
