Product Information

• Name: p-(Trifluoromethoxy)benzonitrile
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: p-(Trifluoromethoxy)benzonitrile is an organic compound that reacts with electron-rich molecules to form a covalent bond. It has been shown to be reactive in abiotic conditions and can be used as a probe for electron transfer reactions. p-Trifluoromethoxybenzonitrile undergoes a reaction mechanism in which the carbonyl group first reacts with an electron donor, such as acetonitrile, to form an unstable intermediate. This intermediate then reacts with a second electron-rich molecule to form the product. p-Trifluoromethoxybenzonitrile also has been shown to react efficiently with benzonitrile and produce the desired product in one step.
