Description:4-Benzyloxybenzonitrile, with the CAS number 52805-36-4, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure. It features a benzonitrile moiety, which consists of a benzene ring attached to a cyano group (–C≡N), and a benzyloxy group (–O–C6H5) that is substituted at the para position of the benzene ring. This compound is typically a white to off-white solid and is sparingly soluble in water but more soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone. Its chemical properties are influenced by the presence of the electron-withdrawing cyano group and the electron-donating benzyloxy group, which can affect its reactivity and interactions in various chemical reactions. 4-Benzyloxybenzonitrile is often utilized in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals or other fine chemicals. As with many organic compounds, proper handling and safety precautions should be observed due to potential toxicity and reactivity.
