What is 2-Aminobenzonitrile?
Chemical properties
It is a chemically stable yellow solid that readily forms salts when it encounters acid. It can be oxidized to nitrogen oxide by oxidants but has certain toxicity. The substance is easily soluble in common organic solvents but hardly soluble in low-polarity solvents, and it is insoluble in water.
The Uses of 2-Aminobenzonitrile
2-Aminobenzonitrile is used for induction of nitrilase activity in Arthrobacter and for radioprotective agent.
Preparation
Synthesis of 2-Aminobenzonitrile: 2-Aminobenzamide was dehydrated to 2-aminobenzonitrile without protection of the amino group in the presence of phenylphosphonyl dichloride and pyridine. The highest yield of 96% was obtained using reagent 2d, while reagents 2a-c yielded less than 60%.
The reagents used for the reaction included phosphoryl chloride (2a), phenyl phosphoryl dichloride (2b), 4-chlorophenyl phosphoryl dichloride (2c), and phenylphosphonic dichloride (2d) in pyridine.
