Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, 2700-22-3 Malononitrile, benzylidene- Propanedinitrile, (phenylmethylene)- (9CI) beta,beta-Styrenedicarbonitrile F 2370 AI3-19689 Benzal-malonitril [German] Benzalmalononitrile Benzylidene malononitrile Benzylidenemalonodinitrile Benzylidenemalononitrile BMN alpha-Cyanocinnamonitrile 2,2-Dicyano-1-phenylethylene beta,beta-Dicyanostyrene EINECS 220-283-6 NSC 490 2-Phenyl-1,1-dicyanoethylene TL 237 Benzal-malonitril is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 160.22 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
