Chloroethane can share in a nucleophilic substitution response with ethanoic potassium cyanide or sodium cyanide (KCN or NaCN in ethanol) to deliver propanenitrile.
Propionitrile, otherwise called ethyl cyanide and propanenitrile, is a natural compound with the recipe CH₃CH₂CN. It is a basic aliphatic nitrile.
The compound is a dry, water-dissolvable fluid.
It is utilized as a dissolvable and a forerunner to other natural mixes.
