- Ni-Catalyzed Reductive Cyanation of Aryl Halides and Phenol Derivatives via Transnitrilation
-
Herein, we report a Ni-catalyzed reductive coupling for the synthesis of benzonitriles from aryl (pseudo)halides and an electrophilic cyanating reagent, 2-methyl-2-phenyl malononitrile (MPMN). MPMN is a bench-stable, carbon-bound electrophilic CN reagent that does not release cyanide under the reaction conditions. A variety of medicinally relevant benzonitriles can be made in good yields. Addition of NaBr to the reaction mixture allows for the use of more challenging aryl electrophiles such as aryl chlorides, tosylates, and triflates. Mechanistic investigations suggest that NaBr plays a role in facilitating oxidative addition with these substrates.

- Ni-Mediated Generation of "cN" Unit from Formamide and Its Catalysis in the Cyanation Reactions
-
The in situ generation of a "cyano" unit from readily available organic precursors is of high interest in synthetic chemistry. Herein, we report the first example of Ni-mediated dehydration of formamide to form "CN" and its subsequent catalytic applications in the hydrocyanation of alkynes and cyanation of aryl halides. Formamide can serve as a convenient source for the nitrile unit, in that it releases water as the only byproduct.
