Application
- Propionitrile (PPN) is an effective solvent for catalytic asymmetric aldol reaction of a silyl enol ether with aldehydes in the presence of a chiral tin(II) Lewis acid catalyst.
- The co-solvent formed by mixing PPN with acetonitrile can be used to fabricate polymer gel electrolytes (PGEs) of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs), which lead to enhanced stability of gel-state DSSCs.
- PPN can be used as a solvent for the Brønsted acid-catalyzed synthesis of N-alkyl cis-aziridines via [2+1] annulation of a diazo compound formed by the combination of an acetate and enolate. The process does not involve the use of metals or reagents and only atomic nitrogen as a co-product.

Franck-Condon one-electron oxidation of the stable anions -CH2CN, CH3-CHCN and -CH2CH2CN (in the collision cell of a reverse-sector mass spectrometer) produce the radicals .CH2CN, CH3.CHCN and .CH2CH2CN, which neither rearrange nor decompose during the microsecond duration of the neutralisation-reionisation experiment.
