CAS 544-13-8: Glutaronitrile

Description: Glutaronitrile, with the CAS number 544-13-8, is a chemical compound characterized by its structure as a dinitrile, specifically a linear chain molecule featuring a five-carbon backbone with two cyano (nitrile) groups at each end. It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature and is known for its relatively high boiling point and low solubility in water, while being more soluble in organic solvents. Glutaronitrile is primarily used in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of various chemicals, including pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. It exhibits moderate toxicity, and appropriate safety measures should be taken when handling it, as exposure can lead to irritation of the skin, eyes, and respiratory system. Additionally, glutaronitrile can undergo hydrolysis, leading to the formation of glutaramic acid, which has implications in biochemical pathways. Overall, glutaronitrile is a versatile compound with significant applications in chemical synthesis and research.
