Mandelonitrile is a key intermediate in organic synthesis, primarily produced via the cyanohydrin reaction of benzaldehyde with hydrogen cyanide. Its molecular formula is C8H7NO and CAS number is 100-49-2.
Requires strict storage in cool, ventilated areas away from oxidizers. Personnel must wear protective gear due to toxicity risks upon hydrolysis releasing HCN gas.
