Acetone Cyanohydrin/75-86-5/C₄H₇NO

I. Basic Information

Acetone Cyanohydrin/75-86-5/C₄H₇NO

Acetone cyanohydrin, also known as 2 – hydroxyisobutyronitrile, cyanopropanol, 2 – methyl – 2 – hydroxypropionitrile, etc., plays a significant role in the industrial field. It can be used to produce methyl methacrylate, azobisisobutyronitrile, and serves as an important raw material for synthetic pesticides. However, this substance is highly toxic, posing great risks to the respiratory and digestive systems, and also causes moderate toxicity when absorbed through the skin.
