Not one but two: The title reaction proceeds through the dual C-H bond cleavage of both aniline and acetonitrile (see scheme). The reaction affords a variety of cyano-bearing indolinones in excellent yield. Mechanistic studies demonstrate that this reaction involves a fast arylation of the olefin and a rate-determining C-H activation of the acetonitrile. Copyright
