CAS 57336-69-3

Cyano(methoxyimino)acetic acid

Description:

Cyano(methoxyimino)acetic acid, with the CAS number 57336-69-3, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a cyano group (-CN) and a methoxyimino functional group (-OCH3=N-OH) attached to an acetic acid backbone. This compound typically appears as a crystalline solid and is soluble in polar solvents due to its functional groups. It exhibits properties such as acidity, attributed to the carboxylic acid moiety, and potential reactivity due to the presence of the cyano and methoxyimino groups, which can participate in various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic additions and condensation reactions. The compound may be of interest in synthetic organic chemistry and could have applications in pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals, given the structural motifs that are often associated with bioactivity. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as compounds containing cyano groups can be toxic and require appropriate precautions.
