Each compound has different characteristics, and only by selecting the characteristics of the compound suitable for a specific situation can the compound be applied on a large scale. 501-00-8, name is 2-(3-Fluorophenyl)acetonitrile, This compound has unique chemical properties. The synthetic route is as follows., Recommanded Product: 501-00-8

General procedure: General: To a solution of phenylacetonitrile 1 (1.0 eq) in methyl formate (10 eq), THF was added. In anhydrous condition, solution of NaH (1.25 eq) in THF was added dropwise to the reaction mixture at 0 C and the resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. After the reaction, the mixture was quenched with H2O, and several drops of 1 N HCl were added until the pH of the solution is lowered to 4 to 5. Then the mixture was extracted with methylene chloride and dried with MgSO4. After filtration and evaporation, the resulting solution was concentrated under vacuum to give the product 2 as yellowish oil in 72%-100% yields.

Chemical properties determine the actual use. Each compound has specific chemical properties and uses. We look forward to more synthetic routes in the future to expand reaction routes of 501-00-8.
