Abstract

Tin or gallium chloride catalyzed transformation of oximes or aldehydes to nitriles is described. Various nitriles were obtained in up to 99% of yields. The gram-scale reaction or the optically active dinitrile was also available. This synthetically useful method has avoided toxic organic or inorganic cyanides as well as transition or noble metal catalysts.
