Lauryl Nitrile
Lauryl Nitrile is a linear aliphatic nitrile consisting of a 12-carbon lauryl chain terminated with a nitrile group. It typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a faint odor and is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents such as alcohols and hydrocarbons. In industry, Lauryl Nitrile is used as an intermediate in the synthesis of amines, surfactants, lubricants, and specialty chemicals. It also serves as a building block in polymer chemistry and in the production of agrochemicals.
