Chloroacetonitrile, also known as cyanide chloromethane, with a chemical formula being ClCH2CN and the molecular weight being 75.50. It is a colorless and fuming liquid with the melting point being 38 ℃ and boiling point 126~127 ℃. It is soluble in ether, alcohol, and hydrocarbons, although insoluble in water. It is highly toxic.
Chloroacetonitrile is obtained through the dehydration of chloroacetamide under the action of phosphorus pentoxide, the reaction between excess amount of acetonitrile with chlorine at 460 ℃, or by introducing ammonia gas into the ether solution of dichloro-acetylene.
As per Growth Market Reports industry analyst Riddhesh Dani, the “Global Chloroacetonitrile Market” is anticipated to witness significant growth during the forecast period 2023-2031. Chloroacetonitrile is used as organic intermediate for insecticide manufacturing and used as an intermediate for drugs such as guanethidine. Increasing demand for pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals is expected to create demand for chloroacetonitrile, and thus, propelling the market. Technological advancements in production and cost reduction initiatives are expected to provide new opportunities to the manufacturers.
Chloroacetonitrile is used to prepare fumigant, which is a kind of pesticides and its volatile vapor is applied to poison and kill pests. It reacts with water, steam, strong acids, or acid fumes to produce toxic vapors of hydrogen chloride. When heated to decomposition, it emits highly toxic fumes of hydrogen cyanide and hydrogen chloride. This vapor causes dizziness or suffocation.
Chloroacetonitrile is extensively used in the chemical industry as organic synthesis intermediate. It is used in synthesis of fenoxycarb, which is used as an insecticide. It is also used as an eluent additive in thermospray liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry. Further, it is used to prepare polysubstituted pyridobenzimidazole by reacting with another reactant such as malononitrile, aromatic aldehyde, and pyridine.
