2,6-Dihydroxybenzonitrile

Description:
2,6-Dihydroxybenzonitrile, with the CAS number 57764-46-2, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of two hydroxyl (-OH) groups and a nitrile (-C≡N) functional group attached to a benzene ring. This compound is a derivative of benzonitrile, where the hydroxyl groups are positioned at the 2 and 6 positions relative to the nitrile group. It typically appears as a solid at room temperature and is soluble in polar solvents due to the presence of hydroxyl groups, which can engage in hydrogen bonding. The compound exhibits properties typical of phenolic compounds, including potential antioxidant activity and reactivity in various chemical reactions, such as nucleophilic substitutions. Its structure allows for various applications in organic synthesis, pharmaceuticals, and materials science. Additionally, the presence of both hydroxyl and nitrile groups may influence its acidity and reactivity, making it a subject of interest in research related to functional materials and biological activity.
