TCI C0997 Cyclopropyl Cyanide (CAS 5500-21-0) is a compact aliphatic nitrile that delivers both a strained cyclopropane ring and a highly convertible cyano group. Hydrolysis affords cyclopropanecarboxylic acid, reduction gives cyclopropylmethylamine, and organometallic addition opens a direct route to cyclopropyl ketones. The cyclopropyl motif is widely used in medicinal chemistry to rigidify structures and fine-tune metabolic behaviour. AMI Scientific stocks 5 mL and 25 mL packs of this flammable liquid, which should be handled in a fume hood and stored tightly closed in a cool, well-ventilated place away from ignition sources.
