Nickel-catalyzed decyanation of inert carbon–cyano bonds

Abstract

Nickel catalyzed decyanation of aryl and aliphatic cyanides with hydrosilane as the hydride source has been developed. This method is easy to handle, scalable and can be carried out without a glove box. The method has been applied in the cyanide directed functionalization reaction and α-substitution of benzyl cyanide.
