Coming of the Nitriles

In 1915 Gay-Lussac of France, as
sayer of the mint and a scientist of
picturesque accomplishments, made
the last of his major contributions
to chemical research by working up
the first complete description of n.y.
drocyanic acid. 1t made a stir be-
cause the new compound contained
no oxygen, a fact which upset prior
accepted theories that oxygen was
an essential factor in all acids.
From hydrocyanic acid, one of Gay
Lussac's assistants, in 1884, devel-
oped propionitrile, first of the nj
TRIES. The nitriles were next heard
from in 1850 when Strecker reacted
acetaldehyde with ammonia and
then with hydrocyanic acid to pre-
pare a nitrile derivative which could
be ~hydrolyzed to alanine, thereby
originating the synthesis of amino
acids, the building-blocks of proteins
in foods. Since then nitriles have
been identified as occurring natural
ly to a small extent in bone oil
and coal tar, in almond and peach
kernels and in sorghum, but none of
these sources yields the commercial
nitriles of today; all are synthetic.
Down to the last DECADE few of the
nitriles were in production or rou-
tine use; they remained in the
academic realm of organic chem
lists who labored with the infinite
progeny of nitrogen.
