What Is Methyl Cyanide (CAS 75-05-8) ?
CAS 75-05-8 Methyl cyanide, more commonly known as Acetonitrile is a clear, colourless liquid with a sweet, ether like odour which has the chemical formula CH3CN. It is a by-product of acrylonitrile manufacture and it may also be formed by the combustion of wood and vegetation.
Methyl Cyanide is a volatile, highly polar solvent used to extract fatty acids and animal and vegetable oils. It is used in the petrochemical industry in extractive distillation based on its selective miscibility with organic compounds. It is used as a solvent for spinning synthetic fibres and in casting and moulding plastics. In laboratories, it is widely used in high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) analysis and as a solvent for DNA synthesis and peptide sequencing.
