Extraction and presentation

Nonanenitrile can be obtained by reacting 1-bromooctane with a cyanide compound such as sodium cyanide . It can also be obtained by reacting octyl 4-toluenesulfonate with lithium cyanide in tetrahydrofuran or 1-octene with hydrogen cyanide or nonanal with hydroxylamine hydrochloride .

properties

Nonanenitrile is a flammable, hardly ignitable, yellowish liquid that is practically insoluble in water.

use

Nonanenitrile has been used as an organic nitrogen standard in determining a quantitative method for determining ON in ambient atmospheric aerosol.

safety instructions

The vapors of nonanenitrile can form an explosive mixture with air ( flash point 82 ° C).
