2-Cyanophenyl isothiocyanate

Description:

2-Cyanophenyl isothiocyanate is an organic compound characterized by the presence of both a cyanophenyl group and an isothiocyanate functional group. It typically appears as a yellow to brownish liquid or solid, depending on its purity and form. This compound is known for its reactivity, particularly in nucleophilic substitution reactions, due to the presence of the isothiocyanate group, which can readily react with amines and alcohols. It is often used in organic synthesis and as a reagent in various chemical reactions, including the preparation of thioureas and other nitrogen-containing compounds. Additionally, 2-Cyanophenyl isothiocyanate may exhibit biological activity, making it of interest in medicinal chemistry and agrochemical research. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may be toxic and irritant. Proper storage conditions, typically in a cool, dry place away from light, are essential to maintain its stability and integrity.

2-Isothiocyanatobenzonitrile

CAS: 81431-98-3

2-Isothiocyanatobenzonitrile is an organosulfur compound that has bactericidal activity against Gram-positive bacteria. It can be used as a preservative in food and also as a disinfectant. 2-Isothiocyanatobenzonitrile reacts with chloride to form thiocyanate ions, which bind to the bacterial cell wall and inhibit its growth. The crystal structure of factor receptor was solved by X-ray crystallography, revealing that the binding site is located at the interface between the two domains. Thiocarbamates are similar to antibiotics in that they are broad spectrum inhibitors of protein synthesis and have been shown to inhibit epidermal growth factor (EGF) production in human epidermoid carcinoma cells.
2-Isothiocyanatobenzonitrile reacts with water to produce carbon dioxide and hydrogen cyanide, which inhibits bacterial growth through inhibition of protein synthesis by binding to rib
