General description

Benzyl cyanide, an aromatic nitrile compound, is widely used as a starting material and as a chemical intermediate in organic chemistry and pharmaceutical applications.[1]

Application

Benzyl cyanide may be used as an analytical standard for the determination of the analyte in fruit samples,[2][3] frescoes,[4] and desert locusts[5] by gas chromatography (GC) based techniques.
