1-Phenyl-1-cyclopropanecarbonitrile (CAS: 2608-49-7) is a specialized organic intermediate defined by its cyclopropyl ring substituted with a phenyl group and a nitrile moiety. Synthesized via nucleophilic addition of cyanide to 1-phenylcyclopropanone derivatives or cycloaddition reactions, it serves as a critical building block in fine chemical manufacturing. The molecular formula is C10H9N.
Storage requires sealed containers in cool, dry, ventilated areas away from oxidizers. Personnel must utilize appropriate PPE including gloves and goggles due to potential skin irritation and toxicity upon ingestion or inhalation.
