Abstract
Transfer hydrocyanation represents a clean and safe alternative to hydrocyanation processes using toxic HCN gas. An efficient and practical cooperative palladium/Lewis acid-catalyzed transfer hydrocyanation of alkenes and alkynes with 1-methylcyclohexa-2,5-diene-1-carbonitrile as a benign and readily available HCN source provides a large set of nitrile derivatives with good to excellent anti-Markovnikov selectivity.
