Safety Profile
Moderately toxic by ingestion.When heated to decomposition it emits toxic vapors ofNOx and CNí.
Purification Methods
Wash the nitrile twice with half-volumes of conc HCl, then with saturated aqueous NaHCO3, dry over MgSO4, filter and distil it. [Beilstein 2 H 349, 2 I 148, 2 II 303, 2 III 798, 2 IV 993.]
