Abstract

Nitriles can be obtained in good yields (60‐80%) by treatment with oxygen at 30Β° of a methanolic solution of the corresponding aldehyde, containing ammonia, a strong base and a catalytically active copper complex. Yields are lower for base‐sensitive aldehydes.

In a similar way, but in much poorer yields, cyanide and cyanate are formed from methanol, ammonia and oxygen, and isonitriles from methanol, a primary aliphatic amine and oxygen.

The dehydration of amides or aldoximes to yield nltriles generally requires Lewis acids and vigorous reaction conditions, which prevent one from applying the method to thermally labile nitriles. Recently sane efforts have been made to achieve the dehydratlon under milder conditions. For example, am
