A decarbonylative cyanation of aromatic esters with aminoacetonitriles in the presence of a nickel catalyst was developed. The key to this reaction was the use of a thiophene-based diphosphine ligand, dcypt, permitting the synthesis of aryl nitrile without the generation of stoichiometric metal- or halogen-containing chemical wastes. A wide range of aromatic esters, including hetarenes and pharmaceutical molecules, can be converted into aryl nitriles.

We present, for the first time, Covalent Triazine Frameworks functionalized with acetyl acetonate group (acac-CTFs). They are obtained from the polymerization of 4,4'-malonyldibenzonitrile under ionothermal conditions and exhibit BET surface areas up to 1626 m2/g. The materials show excellent CO2 uptake (3.30 mmol/g at 273 K and 1 bar), H2 storage capacity (1.53 wt% at 77 K and 1 bar) and a good CO2/N2 selectivity (up to 46 at 298 K). The enhanced CO2 uptake value and good selectivity are due to the presence of dual polar sites (N and O) throughout the material. In addition, acac-CTF was used to anchor VO(acac)2 as a heterogeneous catalyst. The V@acacCTF showed outstanding reactivity and reusability for the modified Mannich-type reaction with a higher turnover number than the homogeneous catalyst. The higher reactivity and reusability of the catalyst comes from the coordination of the vanadyl ions to the acetyl acetonate groups present in the material. The strong metalation is confirmed from Fourier Transform Infrared analysis, 13C MAS NMR spectral analysis and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurement. Detailed characterization of the V@acac-CTF reveals that electron donation from O^O of the acetyl acetonate group to VO(acac)2, combined with the very high surface area of acac-CTF, is responsible for the stabilization of the catalyst. Overall, this contribution highlights the necessity of stable catalytic binding sites on heterogeneous supports to fabricate greener catalysts for sustainable chemistry.
