What is Diphenylacetonitrile ?
Diphenylacetonitrile (CAS NO: 86-29-3), also known systematically as 2,2-diphenylacetonitrile or alpha-phenylbenzeneacetonitrile, with the molecular formula C₁₄H₁₁N and a molecular weight of 193.24 g/mol, is a prominent nitrile organic building block. It naturally presents as a white to pale yellow crystalline powder or flake solid with a distinct aromatic odor, exhibiting a sharp melting point of 73°C to 76°C and a boiling point of 181°C (at 12 mmHg).
It is insoluble in water but highly soluble in common organic solvents such as ethanol, ether, chloroform, and benzene. T
he purity of Diphenylacetonitrile produced by our plant strictly conforms to demanding commercial synthesis benchmarks (GC purity ≥ 99.0%), featuring controlled ash content and extremely low residue levels suitable for multi-step reaction lines.
As a key pharmaceutical intermediate and highly versatile fine chemical raw material, Diphenylacetonitrile CAS 86-29-3 is widely utilized across the following primary industrial and commercial applications:
Synthesis of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs): Serves as a vital precursor chemical in the active synthesis of key active compounds, including diphenoxylate, loperamide intermediates, and related gastrointestinal therapeutic agents.
Agrochemical Active Material Precursor: Utilized as an essential agrochemical intermediate for synthesizing specialized crop protection chemicals, herbicides, and selective plant growth regulators.
Specialty Fine Chemical Synthesis: Applied as a functional aromatic nitrile reactant in quaternary ammonium compound manufacturing, phase transfer catalyst reactions, and custom synthesis.
Polymer and Material Science Additives: Incorporated into research-grade specialty resin synthesis, dye chemistry precursors, and organic material light-stabilizing formulations.
R&D Laboratory Reagents: Extensively applied across contract research organizations (CROs) and university research units as a standard organic chemistry building block for nucleophilic substitution and alkylation research.

Superior Diphenylacetonitrile Series | Reliable Quality & Sufficient Supply
At Zhishang Bio, we combine continuous catalytic synthesis technology with precise crystallization engineering to supply top-tier Diphenylacetonitrile bulk supply. Our production facilities strictly operate under ISO 9001:2015 chemical safety and management frameworks. By optimizing the nucleophilic cyanidation reaction pathway and employing solvent-recycled multi-stage purification, we consistently minimize unreacted starting materials and eliminate trace organic impurities (related isomers and residual halides < 0.2%).
Chemical consistency is continuously verified via Gas Chromatography (GC-FID), High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC), and Karl Fischer titration. Every commercial shipment of Diphenylacetonitrile powder CAS 86-29-3 is backed by a complete Certificate of Analysis (COA), Safety Data Sheet (MSDS), and batch inspection reports.
To support the growing material requirements of global pharmaceutical producers and regional chemical trading firms, our plant maintains a robust Diphenylacetonitrile production capacity exceeding 600 metric tons per year.
Our temperature-controlled, fully compliant warehouses maintain a permanent safety stock of bulk Diphenylacetonitrile raw material (typically 6,000 kg to 10,000 kg ready-to-ship inventory). By integrating streamlined raw material sourcing with continuous crystallizer operation, our chemical factory supply delivers consistent wholesale pricing, shielding global partners from volatile chemical supply chains while guaranteeing batch-to-batch purity.
FAQ
Our Diphenylacetonitrile raw material strictly maintains a minimum GC purity assay of ≥99.0%. Every batch undergoes rigorous quality testing in our analytical lab to ensure a controlled melting point (73.0°C–76.0°C) and low residual solvent levels, making it fully compliant for pharmaceutical synthesis and advanced fine chemical processing.
Diphenylacetonitrile CAS 86‑29‑3 is primarily used as a vital organic building block and pharmaceutical intermediate in synthesizing active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) such as loperamide and diphenoxylate. It is also extensively used in agrochemical precursor preparation and specialty organic chemistry.
Standard commercial packing is 25 kg fiber drums fitted with double polyethylene inner bags to shield the product from air and moisture. For R&D projects or pilot production trials, we also supply 1 kg, 5 kg, and 10 kg aluminum foil bags. Customized bulk packaging can be tailored upon request.
Yes. Every order includes a batch‑specific Certificate of Analysis (COA), Safety Data Sheet (MSDS/SDS), and Technical Data Sheet (TDS). Additional technical records, spectral data (GC/NMR), and manufacturing flowcharts can be provided to support your factory quality assurance and audit requirements.
