P-tolunitrile

P-tolunitrile (CAS 104-85-8 ), also known as 4-cyanotoluene, is an aromatic nitrile compound used as a chemical intermediate in the synthesis of active ingredients and specialty chemicals. It functions primarily as a building block in pharmaceutical, fragrance, and agrochemical manufacturing rather than as a finished product. In pharmaceutical synthesis, it serves as a precursor to active pharmaceutical ingredients. The nitrile group undergoes hydrolysis, reduction, or cyclization to produce target molecules. Fragrance manufacturers use it as an intermediate in the production of aromatic compounds where controlled functionalization is required. In agrochemical production, it contributes to the synthesis of herbicides and fungicides through established nitrile chemistry pathways. Industrial cleaning and biocide formulations may incorporate derivatives produced from this intermediate. P-tolunitrile is supplied as a liquid at ambient conditions, with purity grades typically ranging from technical to high-purity for pharmaceutical and specialty chemical applications. It is available in standard packaging configurations including drums and intermediate bulk containers suited to industrial procurement volumes. Buyers should confirm purity specifications and impurity profiles directly with the supplier. This ensures suitability for regulated synthesis processes. The material is handled according to standard industrial safety protocols for aromatic nitriles to maintain product integrity and operational safety.
