|  |  | 3-Nitrophthalonitrile Usage And Synthesis | 
 | Chemical Properties | light yellow powder |  | Uses | 3-Nitrophthalonitrile can be used in solar cells. Dyes and metabolites. |  | Application | 3-Nitrophthalonitrile belongs to nitrile derivatives and can be used as pesticide and pharmaceutical intermediates. It is an important intermediate for the synthesis of nitrophthalocyanine, nitrometallophthalocyanine or other phthalocyanine derivatives. |  | Preparation | The synthesis of 3-nitrophthalonitrile started with the nitration in position 3 of phthalimide followed by the formation of 3-nitrophthalamide; then dehydration by the thionyl chloride in N, N-dimethylformamide leads to 3-nitrophthalonitrile.
