4-(4-formylphenoxy)benzonitrile

Description:
4-(4-Formylphenoxy)benzonitrile, with the CAS number 90178-71-5, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure, which includes both a formyl group and a nitrile group. This compound features a biphenyl framework where one phenyl ring is substituted with a formyl group (-CHO) and the other with a nitrile group (-CN). The presence of these functional groups imparts specific reactivity and properties, making it useful in various chemical applications, including organic synthesis and material science. The compound is typically a solid at room temperature and may exhibit moderate solubility in organic solvents. Its reactivity can be attributed to the electrophilic nature of the formyl group and the nucleophilic character of the nitrile group, allowing for potential participation in condensation reactions and other transformations. Additionally, the compound may display interesting optical properties due to its conjugated system, which can be exploited in the development of dyes or sensors. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with all chemical substances.
