Metabolite Identification
Common NamePropionitrile
DescriptionPropionitrile, also known as N-propanenitrile or CH3CH2CN, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as nitriles. Nitriles are compounds having the structure RC#N; thus C-substituted derivatives of hydrocyanic acid, HC#N. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on Propionitrile. This compound has been identified in human blood as reported by (PMID: 31557052 ). Propionitrile is not a naturally occurring metabolite and is only found in those individuals exposed to this compound or its derivatives. Technically Propionitrile is part of the human exposome. The exposome can be defined as the collection of all the exposures of an individual in a lifetime and how those exposures relate to health. An individual's exposure begins before birth and includes insults from environmental and occupational sources.
