4-Cyanoindole CAS 16136-52-0

4-Cyanoindole (CAS:16136-52-0) is an important biochemical reagent.

Its main applications including:

1. 4-Cyanoindole is a high-value cyano-substituted indole intermediate for antitumor, nervous system and anti-inflammatory drug synthesis.
2. 4-Cyanoindole is widely used in fine organic synthesis for constructing nitrogen heterocyclic compounds via cyano group conversion.
3. 4-Cyanoindole is applied in the preparation of organic optoelectronic materials, fluorescent probes and functional indole derivatives.

1. Keep tightly sealed and store below 25°C in dry and dark environment to prevent photodegradation and oxidative deterioration of indole skeleton.
2. Avoid long-term exposure to air to prevent moisture absorption and slight discoloration of crystalline powder.
3. Store separately from strong oxidants, strong acids and alkaline reducing reagents to avoid structural decomposition.

1. Avoid inhalation of fine crystalline dust; wear dust mask and chemical-resistant gloves during operation and weighing.
2. Prohibit ingestion; immediately flush contaminated skin and eyes with plenty of running water after accidental contact.
3. Dispose waste residues and reaction filtrate in accordance with cyanide-containing heterocyclic hazardous waste regulations.

1. The cyano group possesses high chemical activity for hydrolysis, reduction and cyclization derivatization reactions.
2. Stable indole heterocyclic structure tolerates conventional heating and catalytic reaction conditions.
3. High-purity crystalline product effectively reduces by-products in the synthesis of complex bioactive compounds.
