C3-selective cyanation of pyridines was accomplished by a tandem process of borane-catalyzed pyridine hydroboration, substitution of the resulting dihydropyridine with a cyano electrophile, and finally oxidative aromatization. This method was suitable for use in late-stage cyanation of pyridine drugs.
