An efficient Lewis acid-promoted site-selective electrophilic cyanation of 3-substituted and 3,4-disubstituted phenols has been developed. The cyanation reactions using MeSCN as the cyanating reagent proceeded efficiently to afford a wide range of 2-hydroxybenzonitriles with high efficiency and excellent regioselectivity. This protocol could provide a practical method for the synthesis and modification of biologically active molecules.
Nickel-Catalyzed Cyanation of Phenol Derivatives with Zn(CN)2 Involving C-O Bond Cleavage

An efficient nickel-catalyzed cyanation of aryl sulfonates, fluorosulfonates, and sulfamates with Zn(CN)2 was developed, which provides a facile access to the nitrile products in generally good to excellent yields. The reaction is accomplished by using NiII complex as the precatalyst and DMAP as the additive. The method also displays wide functional group compatibility; for example, keto, methoxy, N,N-dimethylamino, cyano, ester, and pyridyl groups are well-tolerated during the reaction process.

A straightforward method for the electrochemical C-H cyanation of arenes and heteroarenes that proceeds at room temperature in MeOH, with NaCN as the reagent in a simple, open, undivided electrochemical cell is reported. The platinum electrodes are passivated by ad-sorbed cyanide, which allows conversion of an exceptionally broad range of electron-rich substrates all the way down to dialkyl arenes. The cyanide electrolyte can be replenished with HCN, opening opportunities for salt-free industrial C-H cyanation.
