General description

FT-IR and μ-Raman spectra of 4-chloro-3-nitrobenzonitrile have been recorded in the range of 400-4000cm-1 and 100-4000cm-1, respectively. It has been prepred from the reaction of 4-chloro-3-nitrobenzamide and phosphorus oxychloride. Crystal structure of 4-chloro-3-nitrobenzonitrile has been reported. Molecules of 4-chloro-3-nitrobenzonitrile are linked by weak intermolecular C-H…O and C-H…N hydrogen bonds.

Application

4-Chloro-3-nitrobenzonitrile may be employed for the radiosynthesis of analogs of serotonin transporter (SERT) ligands for use in positron emission tomography (PET) studies and for the preparation of N-(4-cyano-2-nitrophenyl)glycine.
4-Chloro-3-nitrobenzonitrile may be used in the synthesis of 3-nitro-4-thiocyanobenzonitryl.
