Carbon-carbon formation via Ni-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura coupling through C-CN bond cleavage of aryl nitrile.
The Suzuki-Miyaura coupling of aryl nitriles with aryl/alkenyl boronic esters is reported. With this method, the cyano group could be applied as a protecting group of arenes and finally as a leaving group to further construct polyaryl scaffolds.
