Visible-light-driven photochemical Cadogan-type cyclization has been discovered. The organic D-A type photosensitizer 4CzIPN found to be an efficient mediator to transfer energy from photons to the transient intermediate that breaks the barriers of deoxygenation in Cadogan reaction and enables a mild metal-free access to carbazoles and related heterocycles. DFT calculation results indicate mildly endergonic formation of the intermediate complex of nitrobiarenes and PPh3, which corresponds with experimental findings regarding reaction temperature. The robust synthetic capacity of the photoredox Cadogan reaction systems has been demonstrated by the viable productivity of a broad range of carbazoles and related N-heterocycles with good tolerance of various functionalities.

Cyano-containing compounds constitute important pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals and organic materials. Traditional cyanation methods often rely on the use of toxic metal cyanides which have serious disposal, storage and transportation issues. Therefore, there is an increasing need to develop general and efficient catalytic methods for cyanide-free production of nitriles. Here we report the reductive cyanation of organic chlorides using CO2/NH3 as the electrophilic CN source. The use of tridentate phosphine ligand Triphos allows for the nickel-catalyzed cyanation of a broad array of aryl and aliphatic chlorides to produce the desired nitrile products in good yields, and with excellent functional group tolerance. Cheap and bench-stable urea was also shown as suitable CN source, suggesting promising application potential. Mechanistic studies imply that Triphos-Ni(I) species are responsible for the reductive C-C coupling approach involving isocyanate intermediates. This method expands the application potential of reductive cyanation in the synthesis of functionalized nitrile compounds under cyanide-free conditions, which is valuable for safe synthesis of (isotope-labeled) drugs.

Paragraph 0146-0148, (2018/05/30)
The invention provides a cyaniding method for preparing a nitrile compound. Organic halide or pseudohalide, CO2 and NH3 which are low in price and are easily obtained and a reducing agent react, a selective cyaniding reaction is conducted in the presence of a transition metal catalyst, and the target product namely organic the nitrile compound is obtained. According to the cyaniding method for preparing the nitrile compound, a new reaction route is used, through a CO2 and NH3 reaction of metal catalysis, dehalogenation cyaniding or quasi halide cyaniding of halide or pseudohalide is directly achieved through a one-pot method, the problem is solved that a traditional cyanation reaction needs equivalent toxic cyanide, a new direct and convenient method for preparing isotope-labeled nitrile compounds is provided at the same time, and the method can be applied to medicine, tracing, biology and medicine research and development.
