An efficient Lewis acid-promoted site-selective electrophilic cyanation of 3-substituted and 3,4-disubstituted phenols has been developed. The cyanation reactions using MeSCN as the cyanating reagent proceeded efficiently to afford a wide range of 2-hydroxybenzonitriles with high efficiency and excellent regioselectivity. This protocol could provide a practical method for the synthesis and modification of biologically active molecules.

A method that allows salicylaldehydes to be efficiently transformed into meta-arylated phenol derivatives through a cascade oxidation/arylation/protodecarboxylation sequence is presented. We demonstrate that the aldehyde functional group can be used as a convenient removable directing group to control site selectivity in C-H activation. Aldehydes are easily introduced into the starting materials and the group is readily cleaved after the C-H functionalization event.
Salicylic acids as readily available starting materials for the synthesis of meta-substituted biaryls

Salicylic acids are shown to be readily available and versatile starting materials that easily undergo a tandem arylation-protodecarboxylation process under Pd-catalysis. The corresponding meta-arylphenols can subsequently be easily transformed into a var
