Cyanocyclopentane is an inorganic acid that has been shown to have autoimmune-disease-modifying activity. It inhibits the tyrosine kinase, which plays an important role in the development of various autoimmune diseases. This molecule also has a reactive functional group that can form a covalent bond with amino acids on proteins. The presence of these functional groups may account for the transport-inhibiting properties of this compound. Cyanocyclopentane has been shown to be effective against covid-19 viruses, and has been shown to have anticancer activity in vitro and in vivo.

Cyclopentanecarbonitrile

Cyclopentanecarbonitrile is used as a substrate and reagent to investigate the specific activity of nitrile and amide hydrolyzing enzymes isolated from candida guilliermondii cells. It is also used to prepare cyclopentanecarboxamide by using tetrabutylammonium hydrogen sulfate as a catalyst in the presence of reagents such as aqueous hydrogen peroxide and sodium hydroxide.
