Photoinduced Nickel-Catalyzed Cascade Cyclization and Cyanation of Functionalized Alkynes

Abstract We report a photoinduced nickel-catalyzed cyclization/cyanation of functionalized alkynes using 2-(diisopropylamino)acetonitrile as a practical cyanide surrogate. Under mild conditions with Cat. 1, KI, Zn, and 395 nm LED irradiation, the reaction affords diverse cyano-co...
