  • Applications

    2-Undecenenitrile (CAS 22629-48-7) is primarily used as an organic chemistry building block and intermediate. In industry, it is commonly employed to access downstream products such as amines and carboxylic acid derivatives through transformations such as hydrocyanation or hydrolysis. It also serves as a reactive building block for specialty polymers and coatings and inks, taking advantage of its terminal double bond and nitrile functionality. In fragrance and flavor chemistry, it may be evaluated as an aroma precursor or odor-active component. It is also used in pharmaceutical and agrochemical development as a versatile intermediate for the synthesis of complex molecules, subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
