Butanenitrile, 4-chloro-2,2-dimethyl-

Description:

Butanenitrile, 4-chloro-2,2-dimethyl- is an organic compound characterized by its nitrile functional group and a chloro substituent on a butane backbone. It features a branched structure due to the presence of two methyl groups attached to the second carbon of the butane chain. The compound is typically colorless to pale yellow and may have a distinct odor. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic characteristics. The presence of the chloro group can influence its reactivity, making it a potential candidate for various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions. This compound is often used in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. Safety precautions should be taken when handling it, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested. Proper storage in a cool, dry place away from incompatible substances is recommended to maintain its stability.
