Oxidation of Aromatic Compounds. V. Oxidation of Substituted Benzonitriles and 2,4,6-Triaryl-1,3,5-Triazines in System HSO3F-PbO2

Low-temperature oxidation of substituted benzonitriles by the system HSO3F-PbO2 proceeds with intermediate formation of cation-radicals and leads to substitution of hydrogen atoms of the methyl group or benzene ring. This reaction provides a route for preparation of chloromethylsubstituted benzonitriles, diarylmethanes, diaryls, arylfluorosulfonates and substituted benzamides with cyano groups. In the case of methyl derivatives of 2,4,6-triphenyl-1,3,5-triazine substitution of the first and then the second hydrogen atom of the same methyl group transforms it into hydroxy or chloromethyl group, or into the aldehyde function.
