4,4′-Sulfonylbis[benzonitrile], with the CAS number 6461-99-0, is an organic compound characterized by its sulfonyl functional group linked to two benzonitrile moieties. This compound typically appears as a crystalline solid and is known for its stability under standard conditions. It exhibits a relatively high melting point, indicative of strong intermolecular interactions, likely due to the presence of the sulfonyl group, which can engage in hydrogen bonding. The presence of the nitrile groups contributes to its polarity and potential reactivity, making it useful in various chemical applications, including as a building block in organic synthesis and materials science. Additionally, 4,4′-sulfonylbis[benzonitrile] may exhibit interesting electronic properties due to the conjugation between the aromatic rings and the nitrile groups, which can influence its behavior in electronic devices or as a dye. Safety data should be consulted for handling, as with many organic compounds, it may pose health risks if ingested or inhaled.

Dicyanodiphenylsulphone is an inhibitory agent that prevents the HIV-2 virus from entering cells. It binds to the viral envelope, forming a sealant that blocks the virus from entering the cell and infecting it. Dicyanodiphenylsulfone also has immunosuppressive properties, but can be used in conjunction with sulfa drugs and polysulfides to prevent the development of bacterial resistance. The efficacy of dicyanodiphenylsulfone has been demonstrated in cellular assays and in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected patients. This drug is not active against other types of viruses, such as herpes simplex, influenza A, or cytomegalovirus.
