CAS 555-21-5: 4-Nitrophenylacetonitrile

Description: 4-Nitrophenylacetonitrile, with the CAS number 555-21-5, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a nitro group and an acetonitrile functional group attached to a phenyl ring. It typically appears as a yellow crystalline solid and is known for its aromatic properties due to the phenyl group. The nitro group (-NO2) is a strong electron-withdrawing group, which influences the compound's reactivity and polarity. This compound is often utilized in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its solubility is generally moderate in polar organic solvents, and it may exhibit moderate toxicity, necessitating careful handling. The presence of both the nitro and acetonitrile groups allows for diverse chemical transformations, making it a valuable intermediate in synthetic chemistry. As with many nitro compounds, it may also be subject to regulations regarding its use and disposal due to potential environmental and health impacts.
