Direct Metal-Free Transformation of Alkynes to Nitriles: Computational Evidence for the Precise Reaction Mechanism
Density functional theory calculations elucidated the precise reaction mechanism for the conversion of diphenylacetylenes into benzonitriles involving the cleavage of the triple C≡C bond, with <i>N</i>-iodosuccinimide (NIS) as an oxidant and trimethylsilyl azide (TMSN<sub>3</sub...
