Highly efficient Pd-catalyzed synthesis of nitriles from aldoximes
摘要:
An expedient method of Pd-catalyzed conversion of aldoxime into nitrile was developed. The reaction was carried out under the influence of Pd(OAc)(2)/PPh3 in refluxing CH3CN to provide good to high yields. The use of Cs2CO3 (0.1-0.5 equiv) was crucial in some cases.
