4-Aminobenzonitrile, 98%

Description

CAS: 873-74-5 | C7H6N2 | 118.139 g/mol

4-Aminobenzonitrile is used as an amino substituted benzonitrile with hypotensive activity and as a radioprotective agent. It is also used as a derivatization reagent in the capillary zone electrophoretic analysis of aldoses, ketoses and uronic acid. Further, it is used in the preparation of methacrylic monomers containing pendant azobenzene structures and polythiophenes containing an azobenzene moiety in the side-chain.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
