Application

2-Chloropropionitrile was used as initiator during the single-pot atom-transfer radical polymerization under microwave irradiation for the synthesis of polyacrylonitrile. It was used in the synthesis of:
  • nitrile functionalized methimazole-based ionic liquids
  • (+)- and (-)-anatoxin
