The first example of Ru-catalyzed intramolecular annulation of alkynes with amides via formyl translocation has been developed, which provides an efficient approach for the synthesis of 1H-indole-3-carbaldehydes. The Royal Society of Chemistry 2012.
Direct transformation of N, N -dimethylformamide to -CN: Pd-catalyzed cyanation of heteroarenes via C-H functionalization

This paper describes the direct cyanation of indoles and benzofurans employing N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) as both reagent and solvent. Isotopic labeling experiments indicated that both the N and the C of the cyano group derived from DMF. This transformation offers an alternative method for preparing aryl nitriles, though it is currently limited in scope to indoles and benzofurans.
