α-(Hetero)aryl nitriles are important structural motifs for pharmaceutical design. The known methods for direct synthesis of these compounds via coupling with (hetero)aryl halides suffer from narrow reaction scope. Herein, we report that the combination of copper salts and oxalic diamides enables the coupling of a variety of (hetero)aryl halides (Cl, Br) and ethyl cyanoacetate under mild conditions, affording α-(hetero)arylacetonitriles via one-pot decarboxylation. Additionally, the CuBr/oxalic diamide catalyzed coupling of (hetero)aryl bromides with α-alkyl-substituted ethyl cyanoacetates proceeds smoothly at 60 °C, leading to the formation of α-alkyl (hetero)arylacetonitriles after decarboxylation. The method features a general substrate scope and is compatible with various functionalities and heteroaryls.

The invention a Combretastatin A4 analogue containing a cyanoethylene joining chain and an application in preparing antitumor drugs, which relates to the field of a medicinal compound. A structural formula (I-IV) is shown as the specification, an anticancer candidate compound which has strong inhibitory activity against cancer cells and is not toxic to normal cells is currently lacked, for the reason, the method prepares 19 I-IV series compounds, and the para and meta positions of the B ring (benzene ring) introduce various alkyl groups, alkoxy groups or amino substituents or replace the B ring (benzene ring) with various heterocyclic rings. In the I-series compound, when the para position of the B ring (benzene ring) is substituted with an ethyl group, an isopropyl group, a dimethylaminogroup or a diethylamino group, the proliferation resistance of the cancer cells is very strong, and toxicity is weak for the L-02 normal cells, a selective anticancer activity coefficient (an IC50 value ratio of L-02 normal cells to cancer cells) can even exceed 10,000, and the four compounds have the potential to be developed into safe and highly effective anticancer drugs.
