Description

It is employed as an intermediate in the preparation of the muscle relaxant papverin. 3,4-Dimethoxyphenyl)acetonitrile has been used in the synthesis of (Z)-3-(benzo[b]thiophen-2-yl)-2-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)acrylonitrile1. It has also been used in the preparation of modified diterpene (±) nimbidiol which relies on a sulfenium ion promoted polyene cyclization. This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
