represents one of the first examples of the addition of an organopalladium moiety to the carbon-nitrogentriplebond 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.
Functionalized 4-benzylated pyridines can be efficiently prepared by a transition-metal-freecross-coupling between various benzylic zinc chlorides and substituted 4-cyanopyridines in THF/DMPU under microwave irradiation (40 °C, 0.5–1.5 h). Selective benzylations on polycyano-aromatics have also been achieved under these mild conditions. We also report a novel oxidative nucleophilic substitution of
