The article was titled 《Visible-light-mediated external-reductant-free reductive cross coupling of benzylammonium salts with (hetero)aryl nitriles》. The information in the text is summarized as follows:
A novel visible-light-mediated external reductant-free reductive cross coupling for the construction of C sp2-C sp3 bonds was reported. A variety of benzylammonium salts RCH(R1)N+(CH3)3O-S(O)2CF3 (R = naphthalen-2-yl, 1-benzothiophen-3-yl, 4-tert-butylphenyl, etc.; R1 = H, Me, n-Pr) and 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-N,N,N-trimethyl-1-naphthalenaminium 1,1,1-trifluoromethanesulfonate underwent selective coupling with (hetero)aryl nitriles R2CN (R2 = 4-cyano-3-methylphenyl, 2-phenylpyridin-4-yl, isoquinolin-1-yl, etc.) to deliver important diarylmethanes RCH(R1)R2 and 4-(1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalen-1-yl)benzonitrile under mild reaction conditions. Importantly, photocatalysts can be omitted for many cases, which might involve the electron donor acceptor (EDA) complex. Mechanistic studies indicated that benzylic radicals might be involved as the key intermediates. Moreover, the in situ NMe3 generated via cleavage of C-N bond in ammonium salts acts as the electron donor, thus avoiding the use of external-reductant. In the experimental materials used by the author, we found 4-Cyanopyridine(cas: 100-48-1Recommanded Product: 100-48-1)
4-Cyanopyridine(cas: 100-48-1) belongs to pyridine. Pyridine is very deactivated towards electrophilic substitution with respect to benzene. For this reason classical formylation, using methods such as the Gattermann or Vilsmeier reactions, are not generally successful. Recommanded Product: 100-48-1
