CuI-Catalyzed intramolecular aminocyanation of terminal alkynes in N-(2-ethynylphenyl)-N-sulfonylcyanamides was initiated by the formation of Cu-acetylide to trigger N-CN bond cleavage of the N-sulfonylcyanamide moiety followed by CN migration to form a β-cyano Cu-vinylidene intermediate. Subsequently, the indole ring closure furnished the corresponding 1-sulfonyl-3-cyanoindoles.

A variety of methylarenes were successfully converted into the corresponding aromatic nitriles in good to moderate yields by the treatment with NBS or DBDMH in the presence of a catalytic amount of AIBN or BPO, followed by the reaction with molecular iodine in aq NH3 in a one-pot procedure. The present reaction is a useful and practical transition-metal-free method for the preparation of aromatic nitriles from methylarenes.

2-Iodobenzonitrile, its derivatives, and various heterocyclic analogues undergo palladium(O)-catalyzed annulation onto diarylacetylenes or bicyclic alkenes to afford 2,3-diarylindenones and polycyclic aromatic ketones in very good to excellent yields. This reaction represents one of the first examples of the addition of an organopalladium moiety to the carbon-nitrogen triple bond of a nitrile. The reaction is compatible with a number of functional groups. A reaction mechanism, as well as a model accounting for the electronic effects of substituents on the aromatic ring of the nitrile, is proposed.
