(5-Fluoro-2-methylphenyl)acetonitrile

Description:
(5-Fluoro-2-methylphenyl)acetonitrile, with the CAS number 80141-97-5, is an organic compound characterized by its structure, which includes a phenyl ring substituted with a fluorine atom and a methyl group, along with an acetonitrile functional group. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its physical state at room temperature. It is known for its utility in organic synthesis, particularly in the development of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, due to the presence of the nitrile functional group, which can participate in various chemical reactions such as nucleophilic additions and cycloadditions. The fluorine atom enhances the compound's lipophilicity and can influence its biological activity. As with many nitriles, it may exhibit moderate toxicity, and appropriate safety measures should be taken when handling it. Its solubility in organic solvents makes it versatile for various applications in chemical research and industry.
