2-Methoxy-4-methylbenzonitrile

Description:
2-Methoxy-4-methylbenzonitrile, with the CAS number 53078-69-6, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure, which includes a methoxy group (-OCH₃) and a nitrile group (-C≡N) attached to a benzene ring. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its physical state at room temperature. It has a moderate boiling point and is generally soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone, but less soluble in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic nature. The presence of the nitrile group contributes to its reactivity, making it useful in various chemical syntheses and applications, including pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, the methoxy and methyl substituents can influence its electronic properties and steric hindrance, affecting its reactivity and interactions in chemical reactions. Safety data should be consulted for handling, as with many organic compounds, it may pose health risks if ingested or inhaled.
