4-Nitrophenylacetonitrile Use and Manufacturing

Methods of Manufacturing

Derived from nitrile acetonitrile. Mix nitric acid and sulfuric acid according to 1:1.5, cool to 0°C, start dropping benzyl cyanide, and control the temperature not to exceed 10°C. After the addition is completed, the reaction is carried out below 10°C for 1h. The reaction solution was slowly poured into 7 times the weight of crushed ice with stirring, filtered, and the cake was washed with water to pH=3-4. The obtained wet crude product was recrystallized with ethanol to obtain p-nitrophenylacetonitrile.

Uses

In the preparation of p-nitrophenylacetic acid.
