AMinoMalononitrile Methanesulfonate(CAS#121040-00-4)
AMinoMalononitrile Methanesulfonate(CAS#121040-00-4)
Physicochemical properties
At present, there is no clear data report on its melting point, boiling point, density, etc., but it is inferred from the structure that as an organic salt, it may have a certain solubility in polar solvents, and may have poor solubility in non-polar solvents.
Structural features
The molecule consists of an aminomalononitrile cationic moiety and an anionic moiety of mesylate. In the amino malononitrile part, the amino group attached to the carbon atom has a certain electron-donor ability, and the two cyano groups (-CN) are strong electron-withdrawing groups, which makes the molecule have certain polarity and chemical reactivity.
The methanesulfonate ion (CH₃SO₃⁻) is combined with the ammonium ion of aminomalononitrile through ionic bonding, and the methanesulfonate part has good stability and certain hydrophilicity.
Fields of application
Intermediates in organic synthesis: In organic synthesis, they can be used to construct complex organic compounds containing functional groups such as cyano and amino groups. For example, the reactivity of amino and cyano groups can be used to react with other compounds containing carbonyl groups, halogenated hydrocarbons and other functional groups to prepare organic compounds with special structures and functions, such as intermediates used in the synthesis of some pharmaceutical intermediates, pesticide intermediates or intermediates of functional materials.
Pharmaceutical research field: It may have potential application value in pharmaceutical research and development. Its special structure may allow it to participate in some reactions related to bioactive molecules, providing a structural basis for the development of new drugs. For example, in the development of some drugs with antibacterial, antiviral, or antitumor activities, the structural characteristics of aminomalonitrile methanesulfonate may be used to introduce specific groups or structural fragments to improve the activity, selectivity, and pharmacokinetic properties of the drug.
Safety Information
As a chemical substance, it needs to be safe when storing and using it. Contact with strong oxidants, strong acids, strong alkalis and other substances should be avoided to avoid chemical reactions.
During use, appropriate protective equipment such as gloves, goggles, etc., should be worn to avoid skin contact and eye contact. In case of accidental contact, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical attention promptly.
