3-Cyclopentylacrylonitrile

3-Cyclopentylacrylonitrile is an organic compound that forms a white crystalline solid. It is often used as an excipient in pharmaceutical formulations. 3-Cyclopentylacrylonitrile has been shown to be chemically stable and to have no adverse effects on the environment. This compound also has a high dielectric constant, making it useful for pharmaceutical formulations such as tablets, capsules, and powders. 3-Cyclopentylacrylonitrile is a weak base that can react with acids to form salts, which are called hydrobromides. These salts are soluble in water and can be used as solvents or solubilizers in some pharmaceutical formulations.
