:5-Methoxy-2-pyrazinecarbonitrile
Description:
5-Methoxy-2-pyrazinecarbonitrile is an organic compound characterized by its pyrazine ring, which is a six-membered aromatic heterocycle containing two nitrogen atoms. The presence of a methoxy group (-OCH3) at the 5-position and a cyano group (-CN) at the 2-position contributes to its unique chemical properties. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow solid and is soluble in organic solvents. It exhibits a range of applications in the fields of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, often serving as an intermediate in the synthesis of more complex molecules. The presence of the cyano group enhances its reactivity, making it a valuable building block in organic synthesis. Additionally, the methoxy group can influence the compound's electronic properties and reactivity, potentially affecting its biological activity. As with many pyrazine derivatives, it may also exhibit interesting flavor and aroma characteristics, making it relevant in the food industry. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with all chemical substances.

5-Methoxypyrazine-2-carbonitrile
CAS:<p>5-Methoxypyrazine-2-carbonitrile is a reactive, electron-deficient heterocycle that is used as a synthetic intermediate in organic synthesis. The reactivity of this molecule is similar to that of the cyanide ion, which can be used for the selective incorporation of carbon monoxide into organic molecules. 5-Methoxypyrazine-2-carbonitrile has been shown to react with trimethylsilyl cyanide, forming the corresponding trimethylsilyl cyanohydrin. This reaction proceeds via an anti-Markovnikov addition and produces a hemiaminal product.</p>Formula:C6H5N3OPurity:Min. 95%Molecular weight:135.12 g/mol
