A practical and flexible intermolecular protocol for the diverse synthesis of trisubstituted oxazole derivatives via a Pd-catalyzed direct C–H addition of electronic-rich heteroarenes to O-acyl cyanohydrins bearing an α-hydrogen/cyclization sequence is described. A wide range of trisubstituted oxazoles can be prepared from readily available starting materials in good to high yields with high efficiency
A palladium‐catalyzed tandem reaction of cyanomethyl benzoates with arylboronic acids has been achieved. Substitution at the 2‐position of cyanomethyl benzoates was found to be crucial for the selective synthesis of oxazoles and isocoumarins. Cyanomethyl benzoates afforded 2,4‐diaryloxazoles as products, while 2‐benzoyl‐substituted cyanomethyl benzoates delivered 3‐benzoyl‐4‐aryl‐isocoumarins selectively
readily available simple arenes and functionalized aliphatic nitriles. This transformation involves palladium-catalyzed C–H activation, carbopalladation and a tandem annulation sequence in one pot. Notably, the reaction proceeds efficiently under redox-neutral conditions, and exhibits high atom-economy. Deuterium-labeling experiments suggested that C–H bond cleavage of the simple arenes might be the rate-determining

[reaction: see text] In the presence of MS 4A in DMSO, cyanobenzoylation of various aldehydes with benzoylcyanide proceeded very smoothly to give the corresponding cyanohydrin benzoates in high to excellent yields without an acid or a base. On the other hand, reaction of aldehydes with BzCN in DMSO-H(2)O also occurred readily to afford the corresponding free cyanohydrins exclusively.
A variety of cyanohydrin esters were readily prepared from carbonyl compounds with trimethylsilyl cyanide and acid anhydride under the influence of a catalytic amount of iron(III) chloride in a convenient one-pot procedure. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
