4-hydroxybenzene-1,3-dicarbonitrile

Description:

4-Hydroxybenzene-1,3-dicarbonitrile, also known as 2,6-dihydroxybenzonitrile, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of two cyano groups (-C≡N) and a hydroxyl group (-OH) attached to a benzene ring. This compound features a benzene core with hydroxyl substituents at the 4-position and cyano groups at the 1 and 3 positions, contributing to its unique chemical properties. It is typically a solid at room temperature and may exhibit solubility in polar solvents due to the presence of the hydroxyl group. The cyano groups impart significant reactivity, making it useful in various chemical syntheses and applications, including pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, the compound may display interesting optical and electronic properties, which can be explored in materials science. Safety data indicates that, like many nitriles, it should be handled with care due to potential toxicity and environmental hazards. Proper storage and handling protocols are essential to mitigate risks associated with exposure.
