2-Cyanobenzoic acid may be used to synthesize phthalamidine.
General Description
2-Cyanobenzoic acid can be prepared from phthalic anhydride. Mass spectrophotometry, NMR, IR are extremely useful techniques to determine the ring-chain tautomeric equilibrium of 2-cyanobenzoic acid in all three phases. The standard (p° = 0.1MPa) molar enthalpy of formation of 2-cyanobenzoic acid is -(150.7 ± 2.0) kJ.mol-1.
