Abstract

A direct oxidative cyanation of arenes under Fe(II) catalysis with 3,5-di(trifluoromethyl)phenyl(cyano)iodonium triflate (DFCT) as the cyanating agent has been developed. The reaction is applicable to wide range of aromatic substrates, including polycyclic structures and heteroaromatic compounds.
