3-Chloropropionitrile is an organic compound with the formula ClCH2CH2CN. A colorless liquid, it is prepared by the reaction of hydrogen chloride with acrylonitrile. It is used commercially as a precursor to the drug famotidine.[1]
It is an alkylating agent, as illustrated by its reaction with imidazoles to give the cyanoethylated imidazolium salts.[2] Similarly, it alkylates thiourea, en route to 3-mercaptopropionitrile.[3]
