Polyethylene glycol can replace crown ether as co-solvent for photochemical substitution reactions of dimethoxybenzenes with KCN in CH2Cl2 in either the presence or the absence of terephthalonitrile.

Treatment of o-alkoxybenzaldoxime ethers 3 with an equimolar amount of NiCl2 and 3 equimolar amounts of Zn gave o-alkoxybenzonitriles 4 in good yields. It is suggested that the reaction proceed via coordination of the ether oxygen atom of alkyl

A cyanide-free aromatic cyanation was developed that uses nitromethane as a cyanide source in water with an amphiphilic polystyrene poly(ethylene glycol) resin-supported palladium catalyst and an alkyl halide (1-iodobutane). The cyanation proceeds through the palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling of an aryl halide with nitromethane, followed by transformation of the resultant (nitromethyl)arene intermediate into a nitrile by 1-iodobutane.

The performances of heterogeneous catalysts can be effectively tuned by changing the catalyst structures. Here we report a controllable nitrile synthesis from alcohol ammoxidation, where the nitrile hydration side reaction could be efficiently prevented by changing the manganese oxide catalysts. α-Mn2O3 based catalysts are highly selective for nitrile synthesis, but MnO2-based catalysts including α, β, γ, and δ phases favour the amide production from tandem ammoxidation and hydration steps. Multiple structural, kinetic, and spectroscopic investigations reveal that water decomposition is hindered on α-Mn2O3, thus to switch off the nitrile hydration. In addition, the selectivity-control feature of manganese oxide catalysts is mainly related to their crystalline nature rather than oxide morphology, although the morphological issue is usually regarded as a crucial factor in many reactions.
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.]
