1-Phenylcyclohexanecarbonitrile, with the CAS number 2201-23-2, is an organic compound characterized by its structure, which includes a phenyl group attached to a cyclohexane ring, with a carbonitrile functional group (-C≡N) at the carbon adjacent to the cyclohexane. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on the temperature and purity. It is known for its aromatic properties due to the presence of the phenyl group, which can influence its reactivity and interactions with other substances. The carbonitrile group contributes to its polarity and can participate in various chemical reactions, such as nucleophilic additions. 1-Phenylcyclohexanecarbonitrile is often used in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. Its physical properties, such as boiling point and solubility, can vary based on the specific conditions and the presence of other functional groups in a given reaction context. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with all chemical substances.
