Benzonitrile,2-amino-3,6-dimethyl-

Description:

Benzonitrile, 2-amino-3,6-dimethyl- is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a benzonitrile group, which consists of a benzene ring attached to a nitrile (–C≡N) functional group, along with amino (–NH2) and dimethyl substituents on the aromatic ring. The presence of the amino group indicates that it can participate in hydrogen bonding, which may influence its solubility and reactivity. The dimethyl groups, located at the 3 and 6 positions of the benzene ring, contribute to the compound's steric bulk and can affect its electronic properties. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its state at room temperature. It is important in various chemical syntheses and may serve as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. Safety data should be consulted for handling, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested. Overall, its unique structure imparts specific chemical behaviors that are valuable in organic chemistry applications.
