- In
organic synthesis,
cyanation is the
attachment or
substitution of a
cyanide group on
various substrates. Such
transformations are high-value because...

perform unique transformations on benzene, such as halogenation,
cyanation, trifluoromethylation, and hydroxylation. The

Lithium cyanide can be used as a
reagent for
organic compound cyanation. RX + LiCN → RCN + LiX J. A. Lely, J. M.

largely not encouraged, for this
reason other less
dangerous cyanation reagents are
sought out. In situ
formation of HCN can be

- to the
isomeric aminoiminosuccinonitrile (AISN). It can be
prepared by
cyanation of aminomalonitrile.
Diaminomaleonitrile has been
proposed since the 1960s...

mustard oil.
Illustrative of its
reactivity is its
cyanation to
allyl cyanide (CH2=CHCH2CN).
Being a
reactive alkyl halide, it undergoes...

stable in
aqueous mineral acid.
Synthesis of DDQ
