Overview of Propionitrile

Propionitrile is an important organic nitrile compound widely used as a solvent and intermediate in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, polymers, and speciality industrial chemical manufacturing. Chemically, Propionitrile has the molecular formula C₃H₅N, and the propionitrile IUPAC name is propanenitrile, indicating a three-carbon alkyl chain bonded to a nitrile (–CN) functional group.

From a molecular perspective, the propionitrile structure consists of a straight-chain propyl group attached to a terminal nitrile group, giving it good solvency and reactivity in organic synthesis. It appears as a colourless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic sharp odour and is miscible with many organic solvents. Due to its polarity and low viscosity, it is well-suited for controlled industrial reactions and solvent applications.
