N-(4H-1,2,4-triazol-4-yl)imines as Versatile and Readily Accessible Precursors for Nitrile Synthesis

Abstract Herein, we report the selective transformation of N‑(4H‑1,2,4‑triazol‑4‑yl)imines into substituted benzonitriles. These imines are readily accessible from aldehydes. The method provides a rapid and mild procedure that utilizes a previously undescribed nitrogen source. Th...
