摘要

Abstract A mild procedure for the synthesis of aromatic and aliphatic nitriles is disclosed. In the presence of bromotriphenoxyphosphonium bromide (TPPBr 2), N-alkyl and N, N-dialkyl amides undergo von Braun degradation to nitriles in good to excellent yields under the mildest conditions ever reported. The reaction proceeds via formation of an iminoyl bromide intermediate at-60 C, which subsequently dealkylate upon refluxing in chloroform or even ...
