Malononitrile is an organic compound nitrile with the formula CH 2 (CN) 2. It is a colorless or white solid, although aged samples appear yellow or even brown. It is a colorless or white solid, although aged samples appear yellow or even brown.
Like most azobenzenes, Solvent Yellow 7 can be synthesized by the reaction of the phenyldiazonium salt with phenol.The optimal pH value for this azo coupling is 8.5-10. The reaction is carried out in water, since sodium chloride (or potassium chloride) formed in the reaction is soluble in water, while the product precipitates.
Diaminomaleonitrile has been proposed since the 1960s as a key substance for the prebiotic synthesis of nucleobases.Photochemical rearrangement of DAMN under UV light gives 4-aminoimidazole-5-carbonitrile (AICN), which can react further to form various nucleobases.
Carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenyl hydrazone (CCCP; also known as [(3-chlorophenyl)hydrazono]malononitrile) is a chemical inhibitor of oxidative phosphorylation. It is a nitrile , hydrazone and protonophore .
Sodium maleonitriledithiolate is the chemical compound described by the formula Na 2 S 2 C 2 (CN) 2. The name refers to the cis compound, structurally related to maleonitrile ((CH(CN)) 2). Maleonitriledithiolate is often abbreviated mnt. It is a "dithiolene", i.e. a chelating alkene-1,2-dithiolate.
o-Phenylenediamine (OPD) is an organic compound with the formula C 6 H 4 (NH 2) 2. This aromatic diamine is an important precursor to many heterocyclic compounds . OPD is a white compound although samples appear darker owing to oxidation by air.
Tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ) is an organic compound with the chemical formula (N≡C−) 2 C=C 6 H 4 =C(−C≡N) 2. It is an orange crystalline solid. This cyanocarbon, a relative of para-quinone, is an electron acceptor that is used to prepare charge transfer salts, which are of interest in molecular electronics.
The compound 2-chlorobenzalmalononitrile (also called o-chlorobenzylidene malononitrile; chemical formula: C 10 H 5 ClN 2), a cyanocarbon, is the defining component of the lachrymatory agent commonly referred to as CS gas, a tear gas which is used as a riot control agent, and is banned for use in warfare due to the 1925 Geneva Protocol.
