4,4′-Oxybis[benzonitrile], with the CAS number 6508-04-9, is an organic compound characterized by its structure, which features two benzonitrile groups connected by an ether linkage (the -O- group). This compound is typically a white to light yellow solid at room temperature and is known for its relatively low solubility in water, while being more soluble in organic solvents such as acetone and chloroform. It exhibits a melting point that is characteristic of similar aromatic compounds. The presence of the nitrile functional group (-C≡N) contributes to its chemical reactivity, making it useful in various synthetic applications, including as a building block in organic synthesis and materials science. Additionally, 4,4′-Oxybis[benzonitrile] may exhibit interesting optical and electronic properties due to its conjugated structure, which can be leveraged in the development of polymers and other advanced materials. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with all chemical substances.

4-Cyanophenyl ether

4,4?-Oxydibenzonitrile

4-Cyanophenyl ether is a biphenyl compound that can be synthesized by the reaction of 4-cyanophenol and phenylmagnesium bromide. This compound has been shown to undergo ring opening under acidic conditions with sodium carbonate, which is catalyzed by aluminium or cocatalysts such as hydrogencarbonates. The biphenyl product can be obtained through a kinetic process at temperatures ranging from 50-100 °C, with the rate of reaction being dependent on the concentration of biphenyl.
