, p. 866 - 870 (2020/12/30)
In this study, BiVO4 synthesized by hydrothermal and calcination methods were explored as catalysts in the ammoxidation of dichlorotoluenes to shed light on the structure-reactivity correlations. The BiVO4 samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), temperature-programmed reduction (TPR), Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET), and UV–Vis spectrophotometry. The results showed that the catalytic activity of BiVO4 greatly relied on the structure variations. The hydrothermal prepared BiVO4 exhibited better catalytic activities as a consequence of its greater structure deformation, with maximum yields of 73.1, 72.2, and 70.8% for 3,4-, 2,4- and 2,6- dichlorobenzonitrles, respectively.

V-doped hexagonal WO3 microspheres comprising of nanoblocks were successfully prepared via a facile hydrothermal approach. Several techniques such as XRD, SEM, TEM, FTIR, EDS, TPR, BET and Raman have been performed and the characterization results reveal that V replaced W atoms into the hexagonal lattice-structure. The microspheres possess diameter of about 4.4 μm and the nanoblocks have thicknesses of 40–100 nm and widths of about 150 nm. In addition, the catalytic performance of the obtained V-doped WO3 nanomaterial was investigated in the ammoxidation of dichlorotoluene. The catalytic results indicate that the as-prepared nanostructures show significantly improved selective performance with the selectivities of 3,4-DCBN and 2,6-DCBN reaching up to 89.8% and 86.2%, respectively.

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.

A simple, mild, and practical process for direct conversion of aldehydes to nitriles was developed feathering a wide substrate scope and great functional group tolerability (52 examples, over 90% yield in most cases) using inorganic reagents (NH2OH/Na2CO3/SO2F2) in DMSO. This method allows for transformations of readily available, inexpensive, and abundant aldehydes to highly valuable nitriles in a pot, atom, and step-economical manner without transition metals. This protocol will serve as a robust tool for the installation of cyano-moieties to complicated molecules.

Methods for direct benzonitrile synthesis are sparse, despite the versatility of cyano groups in organic synthesis and the importance of benzonitriles for the dye, agrochemical, and pharmaceutical industries. We report the first general late-stage aryl C–H cyanation with broad substrate scope and functional-group tolerance. The reaction is enabled by a dual-ligand combination of quinoxaline and an amino acid-derived ligand. The method is applicable to direct cyanation of several marketed small-molecule drugs, common pharmacophores, and organic dyes. Benzonitriles are some of the most versatile building blocks for organic synthesis, in particular in the pharmaceutical industry, but general methods to make them by direct C–H functionalization are unknown. In this issue of Chem, Ritter and coworkers describe a late-stage aryl C–H cyanation with broad substrate scope and functional-group tolerance, enabled by a palladium-dual-ligand catalyst system. The reaction may serve for the late-stage modification of drug candidates. Aryl nitriles constitute an important class of organic compounds that are widely found in natural products, pharmaceuticals, agricultural chemicals, dyes, and materials. Moreover, nitriles are versatile building blocks to access numerous other important molecular structure groups. However, no general method for direct aromatic C–H cyanation is known. All approaches to date require either an appropriate directing group or reactive electron-rich substrates, such as indoles, which limit their synthetic applications. Here we describe an undirected, palladium-catalyzed late-stage aryl C–H cyanation reaction for the synthesis of complex aryl nitriles that would otherwise be more challenging to produce. The wide substrate scope and good functional-group tolerance of this reaction provide direct and quick access to structural diversity for pharmaceutical and agrochemical development.

, p. 14713 - 14722 (2018/12/14)
A copper-catalyzed aerobic oxidative C-C single bond cleavage of acyclic unstrained oxime acetates is reported, providing various aryl nitriles and ketones in good yields. Mechanistic studies indicate a radical procedure is involved in this transformation, and the oxygen atom in the ketone products is originated from O2 in the air. Oxime acetates as an internal oxidant have been proved to be an initiator, which may promote the discovery of novel protocol for C-C bond cleavage and dioxygen activation.
