2-amino-4,6-dimethylbenzonitrile; CAS No.: 35490-77-8;2-amino-4,6-dimethylbenzonitrile. PROPERTIES: 2-amino-4,6-dimethylbenzonitrile is a methylated aromatic amine nitrile with molecular formula C9H9N2. It typically exists as a colorless liquid with a boiling point around 155-160 C. The compound has limited water solubility but dissolves well in organic solvents like ethanol or acetone. It exhibits moderate thermal stability but may decompose when exposed to high temperatures or strong oxidizing agents, releasing toxic nitrogen-containing fumes. Proper storage involves keeping it in tightly sealed containers below 30 C, protected from light and moisture. APPLICATIONS: In organic synthesis, this compound serves as a versatile intermediate for creating complex aromatic molecules. The amino group provides sites for nucleophilic substitution or condensation reactions, while the dimethyl substituents offer steric effects that influence reactivity and selectivity (The Journal of Organic Chemistry). In pharmaceutical development, 2-amino-4,6-dimethylbenzonitrile contributes to the synthesis of antimicrobial agents where the methylated aromatic scaffold enhances binding to microbial targets (Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy). The compound also finds application in materials science as a building block for organic electronics, where its electron-deficient aromatic core modulates the electronic properties of derived materials (Advanced Materials).
