The important role of C8H8N2

At the same time, in my other blogs, there are other synthetic methods of this type of compound, 2-(4-Aminophenyl)acetonitrile, and friends who are interested can also refer to it.

Adding a certain compound to certain chemical reactions, such as: 3544-25-0, name is 2-(4-Aminophenyl)acetonitrile, belongs to nitriles-buliding-blocks compound, can increase the reaction rate and produce products with better performance than those obtained under traditional synthetic methods. Here is a downstream synthesis route of the compound 3544-25-0, Computed Properties of C8H8N2

A solution of sodium nitrite (3.15 g, 45.7 mmol) in water (20 mL) was added dropwise to a cooled (-15 C.), stirred suspension of 4-aminobenzonitrile (5 g, 42.3 mmol) in a concentrated hydrogen chloride solution (55 mL) at such a rate as to maintain a temperature below -10 C. After the addition was finished, the reaction mixture was quickly filtered to remove solids, and the filtrate was added in portions to a cooled (-20 C.), stirred solution of SnCl2.2H2O (47.7 g, 0.21 mol) in a concentrated hydrogen chloride solution (37 mL) at such a rate as to keep the temperature below -10 C. After stirring the solution for an additional 15 minutes, the solid was collected, washed with diethyl ether (4*25 mL), and dried to give (4-hydrazinophenyl)acetonitrile hydrochloride (5.6 g, 78%).
