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.
The cis-configuration of the amino groups was shown in 1928 through reaction with glyoxal to give 2,3-diaminopyrazine, and the full structure was shown in 1955 to be diaminomaleonitrile, as opposed to the isomeric aminoiminosuccinonitrile (AISN). [5] It can be prepared by cyanation of aminomalonitrile. [6] [7]
Methyl yellow, or C.I. 11020, is an organic compound with the formula C 6 H 5 N 2 C 6 H 4 N(CH 3) 2. It is an azo dye derived from dimethylaniline. It is a yellow solid. According to X-ray crystallography, the C 14 N 3 core of the molecule is planar. [3] It is used as a dye for plastics and may be used as a pH indicator.
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.
All three isomers have the chemical formula C 6 H 6 O 2. Similar to other phenols, the hydroxyl groups on the aromatic ring of a benzenediol are weakly acidic . Each benzenediol can lose an H + from one of the hydroxyls to form a type of phenolate ion.
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.
TCNE is prepared by brominating malononitrile in the presence of potassium bromide to give the KBr-complex, and dehalogenating with copper. [1] Oxidation of TCNE with hydrogen peroxide gives the corresponding epoxide, which has unusual properties. [2] In the presence of base, TCNE reacts with malononitrile to give salts of pentacyanopropenide: [3]
Chloroformates are a class of organic compounds with the formula ROC(O)Cl. They are formally esters of chloroformic acid. Most are colorless, volatile liquids that degrade in moist air. A simple example is methyl chloroformate, which is commercially available. Chloroformates are used as reagents in organic chemistry.
