Description:2-Amino-4-chlorobenzonitrile, with the CAS number 38487-86-4, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of an amino group (-NH2) and a cyano group (-C≡N) attached to a benzene ring that also contains a chlorine atom. This compound typically appears as a solid and is known for its aromatic properties due to the benzene structure. The amino group contributes to its basicity, while the cyano group imparts significant polarity, making it a useful intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The chlorine atom enhances the compound's reactivity, allowing for various substitution reactions. Additionally, 2-amino-4-chlorobenzonitrile may exhibit moderate solubility in polar solvents, and its physical and chemical properties can be influenced by the presence of the functional groups. Safety data should be consulted, as it may pose health risks if handled improperly, emphasizing the importance of using appropriate safety measures in laboratory settings.
