title: Novel α-arylnitriles synthesis via Ni-catalyzed cross-coupling of α-bromonitriles with arylboronic acids under mild conditions.
abstract: An applicable and easy-handling Ni-catalyst can be used to promote direct arylation of α-bromonitriles with various arylboronic acids to construct α-arylnitriles under mild conditions. The methodology tolerates β-hydrogens and functional groups in the substrates.
