CAS 75-05-8 Acetonitrile is an organic solvent characterized by its non-flammability and low toxicity. It has a distinctive sweet smell, colorless liquid appearance, and high boiling point. It is widely used as a chemical intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, dyes, plastics, and other materials.


Liquid Acetonitrile Uses
Solvent: Acetonitrile is a good solvent for many organic compounds and is particularly suitable for organic synthesis, chromatographic analysis, and electrochemical research. It can dissolve a wide range of organic compounds, such as alcohols, ketones, acids, and halogenated compounds.
Chromatographic Analysis: Acetonitrile is extensively used as a mobile phase in liquid chromatography. It can interact effectively with many compounds, providing efficient separation and detection for analytical purposes.
Electrochemical Research: Acetonitrile is a commonly used solvent in electrochemical experiments. It exhibits high electrochemical stability and low conductivity, making it suitable for electrolyte research and the regulation of electrochemical reactions.
Pharmaceutical Industry: Acetonitrile is used as an intermediate and solvent in the pharmaceutical industry. It is widely employed in the synthesis of drugs and antibiotics, such as Vitamin B1 and Vitamin A.
Other Applications: Acetonitrile is also used as a solvent and internal standard in gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis, as well as a catalyst in certain chemical reactions.
Synthesis Methods of Acetonitrile liquid:
- Ethylene Cyanide: Acetonitrile is produced by reacting ethylene with sodium or potassium cyanide under high temperature and pressure.
- Ethanol Dehydration: Acetonitrile is produced by reacting ethanol with concentrated sulfuric acid (or phosphoric acid).
- Propanonitrile Hydrolysis: Propanonitrile is hydrolyzed with an acid or base to produce acetonitrile.
- Formamide Hydrolysis: Formamide is reacted with ammonia to produce acetonitrile through a series of reactions.
