Bagirzade,Tagiev
, p. 1085 - 1090 (2014)
Oxidative ammonolysis of 4-bromo-o-xylene on a V-Sb-Bi-Zr/γ-Al 2O3 catalyst gives 74.82 mol % of 4-bromophthalonitrile at a high conversion of the starting xylene in a one-cycle process. The process with recirculation results in decreased number of by-products and contribution of deep oxidation and increased selectivity in 4-bromophthalonitrile up to 95.42-96.58%.

The dibromofluoromethylation of aryl Grignard reagents bearing electron-withdrawing groups with dibromodifluoromethane (CF2Br2) proceeded in the presence of LiBr. The reaction gave the corresponding α,α-dibromo-α-fluorotoluene derivatives through halogen exchange reaction of intermediate difluorobenzyl anions.
Kinetics of oxidative ammonolysis of 4-bromo-o-xylene: I. Transformations of 4-bromo-o-xylene and 4-bromo-o-tolunitrile

, p. 1672 - 1676 (2010)
Kinetic laws of 4-bromo-phthalonitrile synthesis by vapor-phase oxidative ammonolisis of 4- bromo-o-xylene in the range of 633-69 K were studied. It was shown that formation of 4-bromophthalonitrile proceeds successively through 4-bromo-o-tolunitrile. Conversion rates of 4-bromo-o-xylene and 4-bromo-o- toluinitrile were found to be described by half-order equations on the corresponding components and not to depend on the oxygen and ammonia concentrations.

A copper-mediated 11C-cyanation method employing arylboronic acids and [11C]HCN has been developed. This method was applied to the radiochemical synthesis of a wide range of aromatic 11C-nitriles in aqueous solutions. The use of readily accessible arylboronic acids as precursors makes this method complementary to the well-established 11C-cyanation methods that utilize aryl halide precursors.

Herein, we designed a simple nitrile synthesis from N-[(2-nitrophenyl)sulfonyl]benzamides via base-promoted intramolecular nucleophilic aromatic substitution. The process features redox-neutral conditions as well as no requirement of toxic cyanide species and transition metals. Our process shows broad scope and various functional group compatibility, affording a variety of (hetero)aromatic nitriles in good to excellent yields.

Homo- and heterodicarbene palladium complexes bearing caffeine-derived N-heterocyclic carbene ligands were synthesized and fully characterized by NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and X-ray diffraction analysis. The superior acidity of the alkylated ca
Biomass chitosan-derived nitrogen-doped carbon modified with iron oxide for the catalytic ammoxidation of aromatic aldehydes to aromatic nitriles

Nitrogen-doped carbon catalysts have attracted increasing research attention due to several advantages for catalytic application. Herein, cost-effective, renewable biomass chitosan was used to prepare a N-doped carbon modified with iron oxide catalyst (Fe2O3@NC) for nitrile synthesis. The iron oxide nanoparticles were uniformly wrapped in the N-doped carbon matrix to prevent their aggregation and leaching. Fe2O3@NC-800, which was subjected to carbonization at 800 °C, exhibited excellent activity, selectivity, and stability in the catalytic ammoxidation of aromatic aldehydes to aromatic nitriles. This study may provide a new method for the fabrication of an efficient and cost-effective catalyst system for synthesizing nitriles.

The metal-free activation of C(sp3)?H bonds to value-added products is of paramount importance in organic synthesis. We report the use of the commercially available organic dye 2,4,6-triphenylpyrylium tetrafluoroborate (TPP) for the conversion of methylarenes to the corresponding aryl nitriles via a photocatalytic process. Applying this methodology, a variety of cyanobenzenes have been synthesized in good to excellent yield under metal- and cyanide-free conditions. We demonstrate the scope of the method with over 50 examples including late-stage functionalization of drug molecules (celecoxib) and complex structures such as l-menthol, amino acids, and cholesterol derivatives. Furthermore, the presented synthetic protocol is applicable for gram-scale reactions. In addition to methylarenes, selected examples for the cyanation of aldehydes, alcohols and oximes are demonstrated as well. Detailed mechanistic investigations have been carried out using time-resolved luminescence quenching studies, control experiments, and NMR spectroscopy as well as kinetic studies, all supporting the proposed catalytic cycle.
Zinc Oxide/Graphene Oxide as a Robust Active Catalyst for Direct Oxidative Synthesis of Nitriles from Alcohols in Water

, (2021/08/30)
In this work, without using any linker or chemical modification of graphene oxide, a zinc oxide immobilized graphene oxide-based catalyst was used for the direct aerobic oxidative conversion of alcohols to the nitriles in water. In the first step, graphene oxide was prepared and then zinc ions were electrostatically adsorbed onto the surface of graphene oxide. In the following step, zinc oxide nanoparticles were generated via in-situ growth in presence of NaOH. It was illustrated that graphene oxide layers can control the size of in-situ generated zinc oxide nanoparticles. Various aromatic/aliphatic/heteroaromatic primary alcohols converted to the nitriles in high yields under O2 balloon with ZnO/GO catalyst. This catalyst can be used for 7 successful consecutive runs without significant loss of activity. Graphic Abstract: [Figure not available: see fulltext.]

Nitrogen transfer from cyanide anion to an aldehyde is emerging as a promising method for the synthesis of aromatic nitriles. However, this method still suffers from a disadvantage that a use of stoichiometric Cu(II) or Cu(I) salts is required to enable the reaction. As we report herein, we overcame this drawback and developed a catalytic method for nitrogen transfer from cyanide anion to an alcohol via the complete cleavage of the C≡N triple bond using phen/Cu2O as the catalyst. The present condition allowed a series of benzyl alcohols to be smoothly converted into aromatic nitriles in moderate to high yields. In addition, the present method could be extended to the conversion of cinnamic alcohol to 3-phenylacrylonitrile.
