Acetonitrile, with the chemical formula CH3CN, is an important organic compound. It is a colorless and transparent liquid with excellent solvent properties, capable of dissolving various organic, inorganic, and gaseous substances, and infinitely miscible with water and alcohols. Acetonitrile can undergo typical nitrile reactions and is used to prepare many typical nitrogen-containing compounds. Acetonitrile has a wide range of applications, covering multiple industries from chemical synthesis to pharmaceuticals, and even to the production of special materials. As an important organic solvent, acetonitrile is widely used in the production of synthetic drugs, pesticides, synthetic fibers, fragrances, dyes, and other chemicals. In organic synthesis, acetonitrile can serve as a reaction medium and participate in various types of chemical reactions, such as halogenation, alkylation, and cross coupling reactions. Due to its excellent solubility, acetonitrile is commonly used in liquid chromatography analysis, especially as a component of the mobile phase in high-performance liquid chromatography technology. In the pharmaceutical industry, acetonitrile is used as an intermediate and solvent for synthesizing various drugs, including antibiotics, vitamins, and other active pharmaceutical ingredients. Acetonitrile, as a strong solvent, is used in the cleaning process of producing liquid crystal displays and other electronic components in the electronics industry. It can effectively remove grease, ink, and other pollutants, and is therefore also used for special cleaning and surface treatment applications. In the field of materials science, acetonitrile is used as a raw material for synthesizing special polymers and plastics, which have a wide range of applications in automobiles, aviation, and electronic products.
