Uchida, Ko published the artcileTransformation of aromatic bromides into aromatic nitriles with n-BuLi, pivalonitrile and iodine under metal cyanide-free conditions, Computed Properties of 5653-62-3, the main research area is aromatic nitrile preparation.
Various aromatic nitriles ArCN [Ar = Ph, 4-BrC6H4, 5-ethyl-2-furyl, etc.] were obtained in good yields by the treatment of aryl bromides with n-butyllithium and then pivalonitrile, followed by the treatment with mol. iodine at 70 °C, without metal cyanides under transition-metal-free conditions. The present reaction proceeded through the radical β-elimination of imino-nitrogen-centered radicals formed from the reactions of imines and N-iodoimines under warming conditions.
Tetrahedron published new progress about Aromatic hydrocarbons Role: RCT (Reactant), RACT (Reactant or Reagent). 5653-62-3 belongs to class nitriles-buliding-blocks, name is 2,3-Dimethoxybenzonitrile, and the molecular formula is C9H9NO2, Computed Properties of 5653-62-3.
