Practical synthesis of aromatic nitrilesviagallium-catalysed electrophilic cyanation of aromatic C–H bonds

Abstract

A gallium-catalysed, direct cyanation reaction of aromatic and heteroaromatic C–H bonds with cyanogen bromide was developed as a practical synthetic method for the preparation of aromatic nitriles.
