1-(Hydroxymethyl)cyclopropanecarbonitrile is a specialized cyclopropyl intermediate synthesized via nucleophilic addition of cyanide to cyclopropanone derivatives. It serves as a critical building block in pharmaceutical synthesis with molecular formula C5H7NO and CAS No. 109684-89-7.
Store in sealed containers under inert atmosphere at temperatures below 25°C. Personnel must utilize respiratory protection and nitrile gloves due to potential hydrolysis releasing toxic hydrogen cyanide gas upon contact with moisture or acids.
