1,4-Dicyanobutane Uses

Adiponitrile is an important precursor to the polymer nylon 66.
Almost all adiponitrile is hydrogenated to 1,6-diaminohexane for the production of nylon:
NC(CH₂)₄CN + 4 H₂ → H₂N(CH₂)₆NH₂

1,4-Dicyanobutane Production

Adiponitrile is made by two different methods.
One method is by the electrohydrodimerization of acrylonitrile. It is converted into hexamethylenediamine (HMDA) that is used to make nylon.
2CH₂=CHCN → NC(CH₂)₄CN
NC(CH₂)₄CN → H₂N(CH₂)₆NH₂
In the electrodimerization of acrylonitrile, a two-phase system containing a phase transfer catalyst tetrabutylammonium tosylate is used.

RIDADR: UN 2205 6.1/PG 3
WGK Germany: 1
RTECS: AV2625000
HazardClass: 6.1
PackingGroup: III
Poison by inhalation, ingestion, subcutaneous, and intraperitoneal routes. The nitrile group will behave as a cyanide when ingested or absorbed in the body. It produces disturbances of the respiration and circulation, irritation of the stomach and intestines, and loss of weight. Its low vapor pressure at room temperature makes exposure to harmful concentrations of its vapors unlikely if handled with reasonable care in well-ventilated areas. Flammable when exposed to heat or flame. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of CN⁻. Can react with oxidizing materials. To fight fire, use foam, CO₂, dry chemical. See also HYDROCYANIC ACID and NITRILES.
