0 Method A. b Yields are based on isolated,/recrystallized products andVPC analysis (Carbowax 20 M, 5%, on Chromosorb W) of filtrates from recrystallizations, unless otherwise noted. Yields given in parentheses are values reported by: Feely, W. E.; Beavers, E. M. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1959, 81, 4004-4007. c All products gave melting points and/or IR and NMR spectra that were in excellent agreement with literature data. d Yield based on VPC analysis (Carbowax 20 M 5%, on Chromosorb W) of crude product. e Yield based on VPC analysis (25 M fused silica capillary column with OV-1 coating) of filtrate from recrystallization.Comparison of several acyl chlorides as catalysts for the reaction (Table II) indicates the particular effectiveness of dimethylcarbamyl chloride in bringing about cyanation. Benzoyl chloride and trimethylsilanecarbonitrile in 2-and 5-fold excess, respectively, also effect quantitative cyana-tion of pyridine 1-oxide at the 2-position. An excess of reagents is required for cyanation in the presence of ben-zoyl chloride and perhaps several other acyl chlorides due to side reactions that form acyl cyanides5 and acid anhy-drides. 6 Repeated efforts to obtain cyanation of pyridine 1-oxide under the usual or modified Reissert conditions gave only 4% 2-pyridinecarbonitrile atbest. The particular effectiveness of trimethylsilanecarbonitrile as a cya-nating agent is probably due to two factors: its solubility in organic solvents and itsrelatively slow reaction with acyl halides to produce acyl cyanides and subsequent related compounds.
