Direct C(sp3)-H functionalization of alkyl nitriles is a low toxic and facile route to nitrile-containing compounds. In this research, the Ag2CO3-mediated nitrile methylenation of enol acetates is developed to prepare γ-ketonitriles through the direct C(sp3)-H oxidative functionalization of acetonitrile. A radical pathway is proposed, and acetonitrile serves both as solvent and CN-containing radical source.
