Abstract
Abstract: In order to establish a mild conversion method of primary amides to nitriles, various types of carboxamides were treated with trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride and triethylamine, as a dehydrating agent to obtain the desired nitriles in 84œ95% yields. Key words: trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride, carboxamides, dehydration
