Triphenylphosphine dibromide: A useful reagent for conversion of aldoximes into nitriles
A simple and convenient method for the synthesis of nitriles by dehydration of aldoximes has been developed using triphenylphosphine dibromide in acetonitrile at room temperature. A variety of aromatic and heteroaromatic aldoximes are converted into the corresponding nitriles in high yields.
