“…The nucleophilic displacement of halogen compounds, aryl sulfonates, alcohols, esters, ethers, nitro or amino compounds and diazonium salts with inorganic cyanide ions is the most common and well-known classical method for the nitrile synthesis. [11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18] In addition, dehydration of amides [19][20][21][22][23] and aldoximes, [24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35] conversion of alcohols, [36−41] aldehydes, carboxylic acids, [65][66][67][68][69][70] and amines [71][72][73][74][75][76][77][78][79] to nitriles using various reagents are the other alternative procedures. Because of the ready availability of aldehydes, direct conversion of aldehydes into nitriles with different compounds as nitrogen sources (without isolation of nitrogen-containing intermediates) have been utilized as an attractive method.…”
