Zhao, Yiyong published the artcileSO2F2-Promoted Dehydration of Aldoximes: A Rapid and Simple Access to Nitriles, Name: Picolinonitrile, the main research area is nitrile preparation; aldoxime dehydration.
A rapid, simple and mild process for the dehydration of aldoximes RCH=NOH (R = benzyl, 4-fluorophenyl, naphth-1-yl, pyridin-2-yl, etc.) to give the corresponding nitriles RCN, which utilizes SO2F2 as an efficient reagent, has been developed. A variety of (hetero)arene, alkene, alkyne and aliphatic aldoximes proceeded with high efficiency to afford nitriles in excellent to quant. yields with great functional group compatibilities in acetonitrile under ambient conditions. Moreover, the eco-friendly conditions of SO2F2/Na2CO3/aqueous methanol were suitable for converting nitrobenzaldoximes R1C6H4CH=NOH (R1 = 2-nitro, 3-nitro, 4-nitro) into nitrobenzonitriles R1C6H4CN. In addition, a one-pot synthetic strategy of obtaining nitrobenzonitriles R1C6H4CN from nitrobenzaldehydes R1C6H4CHO has been confirmed to be feasible.
