One-pot transformation of methylarenes into aromatic nitriles with inorganic metal-free reagents

Various methylarenes were transformed into the corresponding aromatic nitriles in good to moderate yields by the treatment with aq. HBr and aq. H 2O2, followed by reaction with molecular iodine and aq. ammonia in a one-pot procedure. The present reaction is a useful, practical, transition-metal-free, and organic-reagent-free method for the preparation of aromatic nitriles from methylarenes. Various methylarenes were treated with aq. HBr and aq. H2O2 under warming conditions and/or irradiation conditions, followed by the reaction with molecular iodine and aq. ammonia, to provide the corresponding aromatic nitriles, in a one-pot procedure. The present reaction was carried out under metal-free and organic-reagent-free conditions. Copyright
