3-Hydroxy-4-methoxybenzeneacetonitrile

Description:
3-Hydroxy-4-methoxybenzeneacetonitrile, also known by its CAS number 4468-58-0, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a hydroxyl group (-OH) and a methoxy group (-OCH3) attached to a benzene ring, along with an acetonitrile functional group (-C≡N). This compound typically appears as a solid or crystalline substance and is soluble in polar organic solvents. Its molecular structure suggests it may exhibit both hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties, making it versatile in various chemical reactions. The presence of the hydroxyl group can facilitate hydrogen bonding, influencing its reactivity and interactions with other molecules. Additionally, the methoxy group can serve as an electron-donating substituent, potentially affecting the compound's electronic properties and reactivity in electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions. 3-Hydroxy-4-methoxybenzeneacetonitrile may find applications in organic synthesis, pharmaceuticals, and as an intermediate in the production of other chemical compounds. As with all chemical substances, proper safety measures should be observed when handling this compound.
