Benzoylacetonitrile, 98+%
CAS: 614-16-4 | C9H7NO | 145.16 g/mol
Supplier: Thermo Scientific Chemicals A1447306
Description
Benzoylacetonitrile is used to produce 2-benzoyl-3-furan-2-yl-acrylonitrile. It is also used in the synthesis of substituted naphtho[1,8-bc]pyrans and as building block in the preparation of 4H-pyrans, 2-pyridones, furans and carbocyclics. It is an active methylene compound, useful in heterocyclic synthesis, e.g. polyfunctional pyridines and pyrimidines.
