5-Amino-2-methylbenzonitrile

Description:

5-Amino-2-methylbenzonitrile, with the CAS number 50670-64-9, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of an amino group (-NH2) and a nitrile group (-C≡N) attached to a benzene ring that also has a methyl group (-CH3) in the ortho position relative to the amino group. This compound typically appears as a solid at room temperature and is soluble in polar organic solvents. Its molecular structure contributes to its reactivity, making it useful in various chemical syntheses, particularly in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The amino group can participate in hydrogen bonding, enhancing its solubility and reactivity in biological systems. Additionally, the nitrile group can undergo hydrolysis to form corresponding carboxylic acids, further expanding its utility in synthetic chemistry. Safety data sheets should be consulted for handling and storage guidelines, as with many organic compounds, it may pose health risks if not managed properly.
