(3-Methylphenyl)acetonitrile Use and Manufacturing

Methods of Manufacturing

General procedure: To a mixture of the benzyl halide (1.0 mmol) and MY (Y:N3, SCN, OAc, CN) (2 mmol) in water (5 ml), -CDPU-MNPs (0.1 g) was added. The suspension was magnetically stirred under reflux conditions for the time shown in Table 1. After complete consumption of starting material as judged by TLC (using n-hexane–ethylacetate as eluent), the catalyst was concentrated on the sidewall of the reaction vessel using an external magnet, the aqueous phase was separated by decantation and extracted with diethyl ether (2× 10 mL). The extracted was dried with calcium chloride (CaCl2) and evaporated in vacuo to give corresponding product. The residual catalyst in the reaction vessel was washed and dried and then subjected to the next run directly.General procedure: 0.06 mmol PPhGeneral procedure: 0.3 mmol CuI and 0.3 mL toluene were added into a dried 40 mL tube under a dry nitrogen atmosphere. After the mixture was stirred at room temperature for about 1 min, 0.5 mmol K
