2-Cyanobenzaldehyde

Description:

2-Cyanobenzaldehyde, also known as o-cyanobenzaldehyde, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of both a cyano group (-CN) and an aldehyde group (-CHO) attached to a benzene ring. It has a molecular formula of C8H6N and a molecular weight of approximately 134.14 g/mol. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinct aromatic odor. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water. 2-Cyanobenzaldehyde is known for its reactivity, particularly in nucleophilic addition reactions due to the electrophilic nature of the aldehyde carbon. It is utilized in various chemical syntheses, including the production of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other fine chemicals. Additionally, it can serve as an intermediate in the synthesis of more complex organic molecules. Safety precautions should be observed when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested.

2-Cyanobenzaldehyde

CAS: 7468-67-9

2-Cyanobenzaldehyde is an aldehyde that reacts with nucleophiles such as trifluoromethanesulfonic acid to form a molecule. 2-Cyanobenzaldehyde has potent inhibitory activity against the kinase glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK3) and can be used to treat autoimmune diseases. It also reacts with hydrochloric acid in solution to form an intermediate, which is then reacted with glycine and ATP to produce a chiral compound. The product of this reaction has been shown to be active methylene, which was synthesized by asymmetric synthesis.
