2-Cyanobenzeneacetonitrile

Description:

2-Cyanobenzeneacetonitrile, also known as 2-(cyanomethyl)benzonitrile, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure and the presence of both a cyano group and an acetonitrile functional group. It typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its physical state at room temperature. This compound is known for its utility in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, due to its ability to participate in various chemical reactions, such as nucleophilic substitutions and condensation reactions. Its molecular structure includes a benzene ring substituted with a cyano group and an acetonitrile moiety, contributing to its reactivity and polar nature. 2-Cyanobenzeneacetonitrile is soluble in polar organic solvents, which enhances its applicability in synthetic chemistry. Safety considerations include handling it with care, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested, and appropriate safety measures should be taken to mitigate exposure.
