Product Information

• Name: 4-Iodobutanenitrile
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 4-Iodobutanenitrile is a synthetic compound that is used in the preparation of cyclobutanones. It can be prepared by the reaction of bromoacetic acid chloride with lysine. This procedure yields the product in high yield and purity and without significant amounts of undesired side products, such as 4-bromobutanenitrile and 2-chlorobenzene. The 4-iodobutanenitrile is synthesized using an asymmetric synthesis which includes hydrochloric acid as a reagent.
