CAS 91983-26-5: (4-Cyanomethylphenyl)boronic acid

4-(Cyanomethyl)benzeneboronicacid is a synthetic compound that can be used to synthesize other compounds. It is an ionic compound and has a molecular weight of 136.14 g/mol. The compound can be used in the cross-coupling reaction, which involves the simultaneous transfer of two nucleophiles from one molecule to another. This reaction is facilitated by the use of an ionic liquid as a solvent, which increases yield and decreases reaction time. 4-(Cyanomethyl)benzeneboronicacid is also fluorescent, meaning it will absorb energy from light at certain wavelengths and emit light at different wavelengths. A solution of this compound in anhydrous potassium carbonate may have a yellow color.
