Pd(OAc)2/XPhos–SO3Na in a mixture of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG-400) and water is shown to be a highly efficient catalyst for the cyanation of aryl chlorides with potassium ferrocyanide. The reaction proceeded smoothly at 100 or 120?oC with K2CO3 or KOAc as base, delivering a variety of aromatic nitriles in good to excellent yields. The isolation of the crude products is facilely performed by extraction with cyclohexane and more importantly, both expensive Pd(OAc)2 and XPhos–SO3Na in PEG-400/H2O system could be easily recycled and reused at least six times without any apparent loss of catalytic efficiency. Graphical Abstract: Palladium-catalyzed cyanation of aryl chlorides with potassium ferrocyanide leading to aryl nitriles by using Pd(OAc)2/XPhos–SO3Na/PEG-400/H2O as a highly efficient and recyclable catalytic system is described.[Figure not available: see fulltext.]

We have developed a clean, atom-economical and environmentally friendly route for acceptorless dehydrogenation of amines to nitriles by combining a new dual N-heterocyclic carbene-nitrogen-phosphine ligand R(CNP)2 (R = o-xylyl) with a ruthenium precursor [RuCl2(η6-C6H6)]2. In this system, the electronic and steric factors of amines had a negligible influence on the reaction and a broad range of functional groups were well tolerated. All of the investigated amines could be converted to nitriles in good yield of up to 99% with excellent selectivity. The unprecedented catalytic performance of this system is attributed to the synergistic effect of two ruthenium centers chelated by R(CNP)2 and a plausible reaction mechanism is proposed according to the active species found via in situ NMR and HRMS.

The invention discloses a method for catalyzing receptor-free dehydrogenation of primary amine to generate nitrile by a Ru coordination compound. The method comprises: adding a Ru coordination compound, an alkali, a primary amine and an organic solvent into a reaction test tube according to a mol ratio of 1:100:(100-500):1000-3000, and carrying out a stirring reaction under the condition of 80 to120 DEG C; and when gas chromatography monitors that the raw materials completely disappear, stopping the reaction, collecting the reaction solution, centrifuging the reaction solution, taking the supernatant, extracting with dichloromethane, merging the organic phases, drying, filtering, evaporating the organic solvent under reduced pressure to obtain a filtrate, and carrying out column chromatography purification on the filtrate to obtain the target product nitrile. According to the invention, the catalyst is good in activity, single in catalytic system, good in product selectivity, simple in subsequent treatment and good in system universality after the reaction is finished, has a good catalytic effect on various aryl, alkyl and heteroaryl substituted primary amines, and also has a gooddehydrogenation performance on secondary amines.
