| Chemical Properties | almost white to brown crystalline solid |
| Uses | Succinonitrile dispersed with ionic liquids entrapped in a host polymer was used to constitute the gel polymer electrolytes. It was used as dopant to investigate the ionic conductivity and X-ray absorption spectroscopic results for lithium and copper salt doped succinonitrile.

| Production Methods | Succinonitrile is derived from the interaction of ethylene
dibromide and potassium cyanide in the presence of alcohol. |
| General Description | Colorless to light brown crystals. Colorless waxy soild melting at 57°C. Highly toxic. |
| Air & Water Reactions | Soluble in water [Hawley]. |
| Reactivity Profile | Succinonitrile is incompatible with acids and oxidizing agents (such as peroxides and epoxides). Can react violently with strong oxidizing acids. Is hydrolyzed exothermically in both aqueous acid and base to give carboxylic acids (or salts of carboxylic acids). Can react vigorously with reducing agents. |
| Hazard | A poison. |
| Fire Hazard | Succinonitrile is combustible. |
| Flammability and Explosibility | Notclassified |
| Safety Profile | Poison by ingestion, intraperitoneal, and subcutaneous routes. An experimental teratogen. Combustible when exposed to heat or flame. Decomposes exothermically above 195°C. Can react with oxidizing materials. To fight fire, use alcohol foam, CO2, dry chemical. When heated to decomposition, or on contact with acid or acid fumes, it emits highly toxic fumes of NOx and CN-. See also NITRILES. |
| Purification Methods | Purify the nitrile by vacuum sublimation, and/or crystallisation from acetone. [Beilstein 2 H 615, 2 IV 1923.] |
