Malononitrile is a commonly known and widely used reagent in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, pesticides, fungicides, solvato-chromic dyes, and organic semiconductors. The unique reactivity of malononitrile promotes more extensive applications of this reagent in organic chemistry even compared to the use of other known CH-acids such as malonic and cyanoacetic esters.
Author Keywords: malononitrile, aldehydes, ketones, esters, ethers, amines.

Abstract
Malononitrile is a commonly known and widely used reagent in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, pesticides, fungicides, solvato-chromic dyes, and organic semiconductors. The unique reactivity of malononitrile promotes more extensive applications of this reagent in organic chemistry even compared to the use of other known CH-acids such as malonic and cyanoacetic esters.
Author Keywords: malononitrile, aldehydes, ketones, esters, ethers, amines.
