APPLICATIONS

Nitrile is any of a family of organic compounds containing cyano group (-C¡ÕN) which is attached to a carbon atom and having the general formula RC¡ÕN. Their names are corresponding to carboxylic acids by changing '-ic acid' to '-onitrile', or '-nitrile', whichever preserves a single letter o. Examples are acetonitrile from acetic acid and benzonitrile from benzoic acid. Pendant nitriles are often named as ¡°cyano¡± substituents. Cyanoacetic acid, the half nitriled-malonic acid, and its esters are basic chemical intermediates for the production of;
  • Malonates
  • Barbitals
  • Caffeine, Betaine, Vitamin B
  • Pharamceuticals
  • Glycine
  • Surfactancts
  • Agrochemicals
  • Dyestuffs
  • Adhesives
  • Indigo dyes
  • Herbicides
  • Engineering plastics
