Rhodium-Catalyzed Direct C–H Bond Cyanation of Arenes with Isocyanide
摘要:
An efficient rhodium-catalyzed regioselective C-H bond cyanation of arenes was developed using tert-butyl isocyanide as the cyanide source. A wide range of (hetero)aryl and cycloalkenyl nitriles could be afforded with high regioselectivity and good functional group tolerance.

The rhodium‐catalyzed selective cyanation of CH bonds of indolines and indoles with N‐cyano‐N‐phenyl‐para‐methylbenzenesulfonamide is described. This protocol offers a facile access to C‐7 cyanated indolines and C‐2 cyanated indoles with high site selectivity and excellent functional group tolerance.
A copper-mediated cyanation of heteroarene and arene C-H bonds has been developed, where ammonium iodide and DMF served as a safe cyanating combination. This procedure shows a broad substrate scope, allowing the facile access of 2-cyano indole, 1-cyano carbazole, 2-cyano pyrrole, and 2-cyano 1-pyridinyl benzene in high yields with good functional group tolerance.
We have developed a copper-mediated chelation-assisted direct aromatic ortho-C–H cyanation that uses AIBN as a safe cyanation reagent. The substrate scope included indoles, pyrroles, a carbazole, and a thiophene.
