Butanenitrile,2-amino-

Description:
Butanenitrile, 2-amino- (CAS 40651-89-6), also known as 2-aminobutyronitrile, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of both an amino group (-NH2) and a nitrile group (-C≡N) attached to a four-carbon chain. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its state at room temperature. It is polar due to the amino and nitrile functional groups, which can engage in hydrogen bonding and dipole-dipole interactions. Butanenitrile, 2-amino- is soluble in water and various organic solvents, making it versatile for chemical reactions and applications. It is often used in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The presence of the amino group allows for further functionalization, while the nitrile group can be converted into other functional groups through hydrolysis or reduction. As with many nitriles, it may exhibit toxicity and should be handled with care in a laboratory setting.
