The present review gives an overview over non-toxic cyanation agents and cyanide sources
used in the synthesis of structurally diverse products containing the nitrile function …

Nitrile or cyano compounds are an important part of structural motifs in dyes, agrochemicals,
medicinal compounds, and electronic materials. Also, aryl nitrile is an important intermediate …

Abstract Copper nanoparticles (Cu NPs) were synthesized via a green method by using of
Plantago asiatica leaf extract as natural solvent and reaction biomedia under …

A novel avenue of C–CN bond construction was facilely achieved via the TBHP-mediated
oxidative coupling reaction between quinoxalin-2 (1H)-one derivatives and ammonium …

The widespread use of amidine and guanidine bases in synthetic chemistry merits a
thorough understanding of their chemical properties. The propensity of these reagents to …

A mild, efficient, and low-temperature palladium-catalyzed cyanation of (hetero) aryl halides
and triflates is reported. Previous palladium-catalyzed cyanations of (hetero) aryl halides …

Pd nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized by using aqueous extract of leaves of Euphorbia
thymifolia L., a non-toxic ecofriendly material. The catalytic activity of the Pd NPs was …

Since Takagi et al. first developed palladium-catalyzed cyanation in 1973, transition metal-
catalyzed cyanation of aryl halides, using Pd, Ni and Cu, has attracted widespread interest …

We report herein a highly efficient Pd-catalyzed amination by “bulky-yet-flexible” Pd-PEPPSI-
IPentAn complexes. The relationship between the N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) structure …

Palladium‐catalyzed one‐pot four‐component synthesis of β‐cyano‐α, β‐unsaturated
ketones by the reactions of aryl halides, calcium carbide, potassium hexacyanoferrate (II) …
