4-Fluoro-3-methylbenzonitrile is an aromatic compound characterized by the presence of a fluorine atom and a nitrile functional group attached to a methyl-substituted benzene ring. Its molecular structure consists of a benzene ring with a methyl group at the meta position and a cyano group at the para position relative to the methyl group, along with a fluorine substituent at the para position. This compound typically exhibits a white to light yellow crystalline appearance and is known for its relatively low solubility in water, while being more soluble in organic solvents. The presence of the fluorine atom can enhance the compound's lipophilicity and influence its reactivity, making it of interest in various chemical applications, including pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, 4-Fluoro-3-methylbenzonitrile may exhibit specific physical properties such as a defined melting point and boiling point, which are important for its handling and application in synthetic processes. Safety data should be consulted for proper handling due to potential toxicity associated with nitrile compounds.

4-Fluoro-3-methylbenzonitrile (FMN) is a cytostatic agent that inhibits the growth of cancer cells by inhibiting the kinase activity. FMN has been shown to be an effective inhibitor of a number of kinases, including protein kinase C and cAMP-dependent protein kinase. The biological activity of FMN has been demonstrated in both cell culture and animal models. As with other chemotherapeutic agents, the evolution of resistance to FMN is a major concern for its use as a cancer treatment drug.
