Abstract
AbstractAn aerobic oxidative method was developed for conversion of arylethenes to aromatic nitriles using (NH4)2CO3 as the nitrogen source and Cu(NO3)2 as the catalyst. The present method allowed a series of arylethenes to underwent oxidative cleavage of C=C bonds to give the targeted products in low to high yields. In addition, the present conditions are compatible with many groups such as alkyl, alkoxy, N,N-dimethylamino, chloro, bromo, iodo, ester, cyano group, and so on.
