Nitrilverbindungen
Nitrilverbindungen, also known as nitriles, are organic compounds characterized by the presence of a cyano functional group, which consists of a carbon atom triple-bonded to a nitrogen atom (C≡N). This functional group is highly polar and contributes to the unique chemical properties of nitriles.
The general formula for nitriles is R-C≡N, where R represents an alkyl, aryl, or other organic group.
Nitriles can be synthesized through various methods, including the dehydration of amides, the nucleophilic substitution of
In terms of physical properties, nitriles are often liquids with relatively high boiling points due to the
