A facile and clean direct cyanation of heteroaromatic compounds using a recyclable hypervalent iodine(III) reagent

Chem Pharm Bull (Tokyo). 2006 Nov;54(11):1608-10. doi: 10.1248/cpb.54.1608.

Abstract

The facile and clean direct cyanating reaction of pyrroles and thiophenes has been achieved using a recyclable hypervalent iodine(III) reagent 1b by a simple solid-liquid separation of the products and the reagent.
