Okabe, Hiroyuki published the artcileAcceptor-Controlled Transfer Dehydration of Amides to Nitriles, Product Details of C3H7NO2, the main research area is palladium catalyzed transfer dehydration amide nitrile chloroacetonitrile water acceptor.
Palladium-catalyzed dehydration of primary amides to nitriles efficiently proceeds under mild, aqueous conditions via the use of dichloroacetonitrile as a water acceptor. A key to the design of this transfer dehydration catalysis is the identification of an efficient water acceptor, dichloroacetonitrile, that preferentially reacts with amides over other polar functional groups with the aid of the Pd catalyst and makes the desired scheme exergonic, thereby driving the dehydration.
