Acetonitrile (CH3CN), CAS 71-83-2, is a polar aprotic solvent primarily produced via the Sohio process. It serves as a critical intermediate in organic synthesis and chromatography.
Store in tightly sealed containers away from oxidizers. Requires strict ventilation due to high volatility and potential metabolic conversion to cyanide. PPE including chemical-resistant gloves is mandatory during handling.
