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. 6136-68-1, name is 3-Acetylbenzonitrile, This compound has unique chemical properties. The synthetic route is as follows., Formula: C9H7NO

Part A. Preparation of ethyl 3-(3-cyanophenyl)-3-oxopropionate. To a suspension of sodium hydride (1.2 g of 60% suspension in mineral oil, hexane-washed, 30.3 mmol) in 40 mL of tetrahydrofuran was added diethyl carbonate (3.7 mL, 30.3 mmol) and 3-acetyl benzonitrile (2.2 g, 15.2 mmol). The resulting suspension was stirred at 65 C for 1 h and then was cooled to room temperature. There was added 40 mL of 10% aqueous HCl and the reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate and the layers were separated. The organic layer was washed with brine, dried (MgSO4) and concentrated in vacuo to afford 3.2 g (96%) of the title compound, which was sufficiently pure to be used without purification. MS (NH3-CI) 218.3 (M+H)+.
