OCTANENITRILE Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Chemical Properties

clear colorless to light yellow liquid

Uses

Heptyl cyanide (Caprylonitrile) was used as a solvent to study the intermediates in the decomposition of aliphatic diazo-compounds.

Uses

Octanenitrile is a reagent often used in the preparation of amides by hydration using amorphous manganese oxide catalyst in the presence of reduced amounts of water.

Tetrahedron Letters, 17, p. 255, 1976 DOI: 10.1016/S0040-4039(00)93701-8
Chemical and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 11, p. 296, 1963 DOI: 10.1248/cpb.11.296

Safety Profile

Moderately toxic by ingestion.When heated to decomposition it emits toxic vapors ofNOx and CNí.

Purification Methods

Wash the nitrile twice with half-volumes of conc HCl, then with saturated aqueous NaHCO3, dry over MgSO4, filter and distil it. [Beilstein 2 H 349, 2 I 148, 2 II 303, 2 III 798, 2 IV 993.]
