and its reactivity as electrophilic cyanation reagent evaluated. The scalable preparation, easy handling and broad substrate scope of the electrophilic cyanation promoted by 9, which includes amines, thiols, silyl enol ethers, alkenes, electron rich (hetero)arenes and polyaromatic hydrocarbons, illustrate the synthetic potential of this reagent. Importantly, Lewis acid activation of the reagent is not

An efficient GaCl3-catalyzed direct cyanation of indoles and pyrroles using bench-stable electrophilic cyanating agent N-cyanosuccinimide was achieved and afforded 3-cyanoindoles and 2-cyanopyrroles in good yields and excellent regioselectivities. Notably, this protocol exhibited high reactivity for unprotected indoles and was applicable to a broad range of indole and pyrrole substrates.

thioalkynes from dihalo(imidazolium) sulfuranes are reported and their reactivities as CN(+) and R-CC(+) synthons evaluated, respectively. The easy and scalable preparation of these electrophilic reagents, their operationally simple handling, broad substrate scope, and functional group tolerance clearly illustrate the potential of these species to become a reference for the direct electrophilic cyanation

BF3·OEt2-catalyzed direct cyanation of indoles and pyrroles using a less toxic, bench-stable, and easily handled electrophilic cyanating agent N-cyano-N-phenyl-para-toluenesulfonamide (NCTS) affords 3-cyanoindoles and 2-cyanopyrroles in good yields with excellent regioselectivity. The substrate scope is broad with respect to indoles and pyrroles.
