4-Cyanopyridine (CAS NO : 100-48-1)

4-Cyanopyridine (4CP), or Isonicotinonitrile (CAS 100-48-1), is a critical C6 nitrogen-containing Heterocyclic Building Block indispensable to the synthesis of complex fine chemicals and pharmaceutical actives. As a versatile organic intermediate, 4CP possesses a functional nitrile group (-CN) attached to the C4 position of the pyridine ring, enabling chemists to perform a wide range of transformations. 4CP's primary industrial route is the high-yield Ammoxidation of 4-methylpyridine (4-Picoline). Pyridine-4-carbonitrile's value in the API & CDMO sector is rooted in its role as a direct precursor to Isonicotinic Acid and, most notably, the essential anti-tuberculosis drug Isoniazid (INH). Aside this, Pyridine Carbonitrile is a key reagent in the preparation of the powerful organocatalyst 4-Dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP), a globally preferred coupling agent. 4CP (4-Pyridinecarbonitrile) is produced in pharmaceutical or technical grades by 4-Cyanopyridine manufacturers, ensuring the stringent purity standards (typically > 99%) required for subsequent sensitive synthetic steps. We are the leading 4-Cyanopyridine supplier worldwide ensuring comprehensive regulatory support & CoA traceability for various grades with global supply capability with reliable lead time.
