Heptadecanenitrile

Description:
Heptadecanenitrile, with the CAS number 5399-02-0, is a long-chain aliphatic nitrile characterized by a straight-chain structure consisting of 17 carbon atoms and a cyano group (-C≡N) at one end. This compound is a member of the nitrile family, which are organic compounds containing a carbon-nitrogen triple bond. Heptadecanenitrile is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature, exhibiting low solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature, but it is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether. Its molecular structure contributes to its relatively high boiling point compared to shorter-chain nitriles. Heptadecanenitrile is used in various applications, including as an intermediate in organic synthesis and in the production of specialty chemicals. Additionally, it may exhibit properties such as low volatility and stability under standard conditions, making it suitable for specific industrial processes. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as with many nitriles, due to potential toxicity and irritant effects.
