A variety of deactivated arenes were nitrated to their corresponding nitro derivatives in excellent yields under high-speed ball milling condition using Fe(NO3)3·9H2O/P2O5 as nitrating reagent. A radical involved mechanism was proposed for this facial, eco-friendly, safe, and effective nitration reaction.

Nitrogen-doped carbon catalysts have attracted increasing research attention due to several advantages for catalytic application. Herein, cost-effective, renewable biomass chitosan was used to prepare a N-doped carbon modified with iron oxide catalyst (Fe2O3@NC) for nitrile synthesis. The iron oxide nanoparticles were uniformly wrapped in the N-doped carbon matrix to prevent their aggregation and leaching. Fe2O3@NC-800, which was subjected to carbonization at 800 °C, exhibited excellent activity, selectivity, and stability in the catalytic ammoxidation of aromatic aldehydes to aromatic nitriles. This study may provide a new method for the fabrication of an efficient and cost-effective catalyst system for synthesizing nitriles.

Trichloroacetonitrile has been found to be an efficient dehydrating agent for a range of aldoximes including aromatic and heterocyclic aldoxime yielding the corresponding nitriles in moderate to good yields. The dehydration reactions can take place in non-acetonitrile media without the aid of a metal catalyst. In addition, it has been confirmed that trichloroacetonitrile was converted into trichloroacetamide in the reaction.

Facile dehydration of primary amides to nitriles catalyzed by lead salts: The anionic ligand matters

The synthesis of nitrile under mild conditions was achieved via dehydration of primary amide using lead salts as catalyst. The reaction processes were intensified by not only adding surfactant but also continuously removing the only by-product, water from the system. Both aliphatic and aromatic nitriles can be prepared in this manner with moderate to excellent yields. The reaction mechanisms were obtained with high-level quantum chemical calculations, and the crucial role the anionic ligand plays in the transformations were revealed.
Recyclable and Reusable Pd(OAc)2/XPhos–SO3Na/PEG-400/H2O System for Cyanation of Aryl Chlorides with Potassium Ferrocyanide

Pd(OAc)2/XPhos–SO3Na in a mixture of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG-400) and water is shown to be a highly efficient catalyst for the cyanation of aryl chlorides with potassium ferrocyanide. The reaction proceeded smoothly at 100 or 120?oC with K2CO3 or KOAc as base, delivering a variety of aromatic nitriles in good to excellent yields. The isolation of the crude products is facilely performed by extraction with cyclohexane and more importantly, both expensive Pd(OAc)2 and XPhos–SO3Na in PEG-400/H2O system could be easily recycled and reused at least six times without any apparent loss of catalytic efficiency. Graphical Abstract: Palladium-catalyzed cyanation of aryl chlorides with potassium ferrocyanide leading to aryl nitriles by using Pd(OAc)2/XPhos–SO3Na/PEG-400/H2O as a highly efficient and recyclable catalytic system is described.[Figure not available: see fulltext.]
Pd/CoFe2O4/chitosan: A highly effective and easily recoverable hybrid nanocatalyst for synthesis of benzonitriles and reduction of 2-nitroaniline

, (2020/10/02)
In this study, a novel catalyst system with high activity and easy recoverability was successfully prepared through the deposition of Pd nanoparticles (NPs) onto designed sustainable hybrid beads containing magnetic cobalt ferrite and chitosan (Pd/CoFe2O4/chitosan). The catalytic potential of Pd/CoFe2O4/chitosan hybrid nanocatalyst was then assessed in i) preparation of benzonitriles via aryl halides cyanation and ii) reduction of 2-nitroaniline (2-NA). Various aryl iodides and bromides were successfully cyanated by Pd/CoFe2O4/chitosan hybrid nanocatalyst with excellent reaction yields within 3 h. In addition to the production of benzonitriles, the hybrid nanocatalyst showed excellent activity by reducing 2-NA in 65 s. It was proved that the Pd/CoFe2O4/chitosan hybrid nanocatalyst outperformed many catalysts used in the cyanation of aryl halides and catalytic reduction of 2-NA previously reported in the literature. Moreover, it was found that the designed Pd/CoFe2O4/chitosan hybrid nanocatalyst was easily and effectively separated from the reaction mixture using an external magnet and reused several times in catalytic reactions without considerable loss of catalytic activity.

Biochar is a carbon-rich solid, the surface of which is covered with a high density of functional carbonyl, hydroxyl and carboxylic acid groups. In this work, palladium nanoparticles were embedded on magnetic biochar and a new reusable and environmentally-friendly catalyst was developed and applied for the promotion of Suzuki-Miyaura C-C coupling and cyanation reactions. The high-carbon (77%), low-ash content (5.8%) and the relatively high surface area (266 m2g?1) of pine tree biochar (PTB) suggested that it might be highly suitable as a catalyst substrate. The Fe3O4-Pd-biochar nanocomposite was successfully characterized using SEM, TEM, EDX, FT-IR, BET and XRD. Its catalytic role was initially evaluated usingp-NO2C6H4I as a model reactant (for both types of reactions) and later for the production of biaryls and benzonitriles from a wide range of aryl halides under mild reaction conditions. Biaryls and benzonitriles were characterized using GC-MS. In the case of the Suzuki-Miyaura reaction, the optimum yield of 98% was obtained with a catalyst concentration of 0.04 mol%, microwave irradiation of 400 W, and a residence time of 5 min, using K2CO3as the base. With respect to the cyanation reaction, dimethylformamide, Na2CO3and 6 h were the optimum solvent, base and reaction duration, respectively. Subsequently, the nanocatalyst showed excellent catalytic activity in both reactions, achieving >88% yields in most cases, regardless of the aryl iodide or bromide used and the type of substitution.

A synthetic method for the palladium-catalyzed cyanation of aryl boronic acids using bench stable and non-toxic N-cyanosuccinimide has been developed. High-throughput experimentation facilitated the screen of 90 different ligands and the resultant statistical data analysis identified that ligand σ-donation, π-acidity and sterics are key drivers that govern yield. Categorization into three ligand groups – monophosphines, bisphosphines and miscellaneous – was performed before the analysis. For the monophosphines, the yield of the reaction increases for strong σ-donating, weak π-accepting ligands, with flexible pendant substituents. For the bisphosphines, the yield predominantly correlates with ligand lability. The applicability of the designed reaction to a wider substrate scope was investigated, showing good functional group tolerance in particular with boronic acids bearing electron-withdrawing substituents. This work outlines the development of a novel reaction, coupled with a fast and efficient workflow to gain understanding of the optimal ligand properties for the design of improved palladium cross-coupling catalysts.

A photoinduced iron-catalyzed ipso-nitration of aryl halides with KNO2 has been developed, in which aryl iodides, bromides, and some of aryl chlorides are feasible. The mechanism investigations show that the in situ formed iron complex by FeSO4, KNO2, and 1,10-phenanthroline acts as the light-harvesting photocatalyst with a longer lifetime of the excited state, and the reaction undergoes a photoinduced single-electron transfer (SET) process. This work represents an example for the photoinduced iron-catalyzed Ullmann-type couplings.
