1H-Benzimidazole-5-carbonitrile,7-methyl-

Description:

1H-Benzimidazole-5-carbonitrile, 7-methyl- is a chemical compound characterized by its benzimidazole core, which is a bicyclic structure containing both benzene and imidazole rings. This compound features a cyano group (-C≡N) at the 5-position and a methyl group (-CH3) at the 7-position of the benzimidazole ring. The presence of the cyano group contributes to its potential reactivity and applications in organic synthesis, while the methyl group may influence its solubility and biological activity. Typically, compounds like this can exhibit various properties such as being crystalline solids, having moderate to high melting points, and displaying solubility in polar organic solvents. Additionally, derivatives of benzimidazole are often studied for their pharmacological properties, including antimicrobial and anticancer activities. The specific characteristics, such as melting point, boiling point, and solubility, would depend on the compound's purity and the conditions under which they are measured.
