Abstract
A facile one-pot method is presented for the synthesis of nitriles from the corresponding primary alcohols by nickel-catalyzed oxidation with tetrabutylammonium peroxydisulfate in the presence of ammonium hydrogen carbonate under basic aqueous conditions. This convenient synthetic method provides an easy and simple access to various aliphatic, aromatic and heterocyclic nitriles in excellent yields with very high purity.
Key words
tetrabutylammonium peroxydisulfate - nitriles - primary alcohols - oxidation
