Copper-catalyzed fragmentation-rearrangement sequence of cycloketoxime esters

Copper-catalyzed fragmentation-rearrangement sequence of cycloketoxime esters is reported. This strategy provides direct access to diverse ring-opening acyloxylation nitriles avoiding the use of toxic cyanic reagents with good atom economy and well functi

Synthesis of Nitriles from Haloesters, Haloketones and Haloethers

The action of NaCN on haloesters, haloketones and haloethers has been studied.Haloesters wherein halogen and ester functions are located on adjacent carbon atoms, do not furnish the corresponding nitriles, whereas those with halogen and ester functions not located on adjacent carbon atoms, furnish the corresponding nitriles in good yields.The presence of hydroxy or ether function on the carbon adjacent to primary halide bearing carbon atom does not interfere in the reaction with cyanide. δ-Haloketones are transformed to ketonitriles, γ-Haloketones are transformed to cyclopropyl ketones and epoxyhalides to epoxynitriles.
