2-Ethoxybenzonitrile, with the CAS number 6609-57-0, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of aromatic nitriles. It features a benzene ring substituted with an ethoxy group (-OCH2CH3) and a nitrile group (-CN) at the ortho position. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and temperature. It is characterized by its aromatic nature, which contributes to its stability and reactivity. The presence of the nitrile group imparts polar characteristics, making it soluble in polar solvents while being less soluble in non-polar solvents. 2-Ethoxybenzonitrile is often used as an intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its reactivity can be attributed to the electron-withdrawing nature of the nitrile group, which can influence electrophilic substitution reactions on the aromatic ring. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested.
