Common NamePentanenitrile
DescriptionPentanenitrile, also known as 1-butyl cyanide or 1-cyano-butane, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as nitriles. Nitriles are compounds having the structure RC#N; thus C-substituted derivatives of hydrocyanic acid, HC#N. Pentanenitrile is possibly neutral. Outside of the human body, Pentanenitrile has been detected, but not quantified in, brassicas and corns. This could make pentanenitrile a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Pentanenitrile can be produced by heating 1-chlorobutane with sodium cyanide in dimethyl sulfoxide. Pentanenitrile, valeronitrile or butyl cyanide is a nitrile with the formula C4H9CN. The cyanide is detoxified and excreted in urine as thiocyanate. Pentanenitrile is contained in bone oil. Another way to get the substance is by heating butyraldehyde with hydroxylamine. These conformers are called anti-anti (30%), anti-gauche (46%), gauche-anti, gauche-gauche-cis, and gauche-gauche-trans. Pentanenitrile is toxic to animals, and produces its action by the liberation of cyanide by cytochrome P450. Pentanenitrile is found in Brassica spp. Pentanenitrile is hydrolyzed to valeric acid by the fungi Gibberella intermedia, Fusarium oxysporum, and Aspergillus niger in which it induces production of the nitrilase enzyme.
