Description:4-Iodobenzonitrile, also known as para-iodobenzonitrile, is an organic compound characterized by a benzene ring substituted with both an iodine atom and a nitrile group (–CN) at the para position. Its molecular formula is C7H4I N, and it features a relatively simple structure that contributes to its reactivity and utility in various chemical applications. The presence of the iodine atom imparts notable electrophilic properties, making it a useful intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The nitrile group enhances the compound's polarity and solubility in polar solvents, while also serving as a functional group for further chemical transformations. 4-Iodobenzonitrile is typically a solid at room temperature and may exhibit moderate toxicity, necessitating appropriate safety precautions during handling. Its reactivity can be exploited in nucleophilic substitution reactions and coupling reactions, making it a valuable building block in synthetic organic chemistry.
