A new efficient method for the conversion of aldehydes into nitriles using ammonia and hydrogen peroxide

Aldehydes were converted into the corresponding nitriles by a homogeneous reaction with ammonia and aqueous hydrogen peroxide in the presence of copper salts or complexes under mild conditions. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.

The Introduction of Nitrile-Groups into Heterocycles and Concversion of Carboxylic Groups into their Corresponding Nitriles with Clorosulfonylisocyanate and Triethylamine

Addition of chlorosulfonylisocyanate (CSI) to heterocycles such as thiophene (4) or indole (15) and unsaturated systems such as dihydropyran (7) gives N-chlorosulfonylamides RCONHSO2Cl, which can be converted by equivalent amounts of triethylamine to their corresponding nitriles.Since carboxylic acids react with CSI to N-chlorosulfonylamides, subsequent treatment with triethylamine affords the corresponding nitriles, but no isocyanates as claimed by other authors.The mechanisms of the conversion of the intermediate N-chlorosulfonylamides into the corresponding nitriles are discussed.

Improved Synthesis of 3-Methylcholanthrene

An improved synthesis of 7-methylindan-4-yl 1-naphthyl ketone (3), an important precursor of 3-methylcholanthrene (1), has been developed.The key intermediates for 3, 4-cyano-7-methylindan (2a) and 4-(ethoxycarbonyl)-7-methylindan (2b), were conveniently prepared in high yields by reaction of 1-(1-pyrrolidino)cyclopentene (6) with sorbonitrile (5a) or ethyl sorbate (5b), followed by aromatization with sulfur. 1-Naphthylmagnesium bromide (4b) in the presence of cuprous iodide reacted cleanly with 4-(chloromethanoyl)-7-methylindan (12) to give 3.The Friedel-Crafts acylation of naphthalene with 12 afforded 84percent of 3 and 16percent of β isomer 13.Alternatively, 3 was prepared in 75percent yield by condensation of Grignard reagent 4b with 2a in THF.Thermal annelation of 3 afforded 1 in 41.5percent yield.
