- 2,2-Dimethyl-4-Oxobutanenitrile
2,2-Dimethyl-4-oxobutanenitrile is an alkaloid that is extracted from the bark of the Cinchona tree. The extraction process is done by mixing the bark with ethanol and then boiling it in a solution of sodium carbonate (soda ash) and water. The resulting mixture contains many different alkaloids, including 2,2-dimethyl-4-oxobutanenitrile. Tetramethyluric acid, one of the other alkaloids present in this mixture, can be used to prepare a purple dye called Tyrian purple. Purines are also present in this mixture and are precursors for nucleic acids such as DNA or RNA.
