摘要

Palladium metal catalyzes the decomposition of benzyl azide affording benzonitrile, benzylamine, and N-benzylidenebenzylamine. The presence of a suitable hydrogen- acceptor improves the yield of benzonitrile at the sacrifice of benzylamine, whereas the yield of N-benzylidenebenzylamine remains constant. The reaction is applied to the preparation of other nitriles.
