Benzonitrile C7H5N CAS 100-47-0

     Bezonitrile is a colorless, oily liquid. It has a almond odor and a bitter taste. Slightly soluble in cold water, the solubility in water at 100°C is 1%; miscible with common organic solvents. 

     Benzonitrile is a widely utilized as a solvent and an intermediate in industries making drugs, perfumes, dyes, rubber, textiles, resins and specialty lacquers. It finds application as a versatile precursor for many derivatives. It coordinates with transition metal to form complexes which act as synthetic intermediates.

     The most important commercial use for benzonitrile is the synthesis of benzoguanamine, which is a derivative of melamine and is used in protective coatings and molding resins. It is used intermediate for rubber chemicals; solvent for nitrile rubber, specialty lacquers, and many resins and polymers, and for many anhydrous metallic salts.
