The sustainable introduction of nitrogen moieties in the form of nitrile or amide groups in functionalized molecules is of fundamental interest because nitrogen-containing motifs are found in a large number of life science molecules, natural products and materials. Hence, the synthesis and functionalization of nitriles and amides from easily available starting materials using cost-effective catalysts and green reagents is highly desired. In this regard, herein we report the nanoscale iron oxide-catalyzed environmentally benign synthesis of nitriles and primary amides from aldehydes and aqueous ammonia in the presence of 1 bar O2 or air. Under mild reaction conditions, this iron-catalyzed aerobic oxidation process proceeds to synthesise functionalized and structurally diverse aromatic, aliphatic and heterocyclic nitriles. Additionally, applying this iron-based protocol, primary amides have also been prepared in a water medium.

Efficient conversion of aldoximes and primary amides into nitriles by employing cyclopropenone as an organocatalyst is reported. The reaction proceeds smoothly under mild conditions with 5 mol-% catalyst loading to afford nitriles in excellent yields (78-94 %) in a single operation. This method is equally applicable to both aldoximes and primary amides bearing aromatic, heterocyclic, and aliphatic moieties. The convenient and catalytic procedure widens the scope of the utilization of cyclopropenones in organic synthesis. Cyclopropenone- catalyzed conversion of aldoximes and primary amides into nitriles in a one-pot procedure is described. The reaction proceeds smoothly under mild conditions with low catalyst loading. The convenient and catalytic procedure widens the scope of the utilization of cyclopropenones in organic synthesis.
