Benzonitrile, 2-[(acetyloxy)methyl]-

Description:
Benzonitrile, 2-[(acetyloxy)methyl]- is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a benzonitrile moiety, which features a cyano group (-C≡N) attached to a benzene ring. The compound also contains an acetyloxy group, indicating that it has an acetyl functional group (-COCH3) linked through an ether bond to a methylene (-CH2-) group. This structure imparts both polar and nonpolar characteristics, making it soluble in various organic solvents while exhibiting limited solubility in water. The presence of the cyano group contributes to its reactivity, allowing it to participate in nucleophilic addition reactions. Additionally, the acetyloxy group can undergo hydrolysis under certain conditions, potentially releasing acetic acid. Benzonitrile derivatives are often utilized in organic synthesis, pharmaceuticals, and as intermediates in the production of dyes and agrochemicals. Safety data indicates that, like many nitriles, it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested, necessitating appropriate handling and storage precautions.
