TCI C0441 Ethyl Cyanoacetate (CAS 105-56-6) is one of the most widely used active methylene reagents in synthetic organic chemistry. Its acidic methylene position readily forms carbon nucleophiles for Knoevenagel condensations, alkylations, and Michael additions. It is also the standard starting material for the Gewald reaction and for the synthesis of pyrazolones, substituted pyridines, and other nitrogen heterocycles. The liquid should be dispensed in a fume hood with gloves and eye protection and stored tightly closed in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place.
