Reaction Steps
A mixture of 5-[3-trifluoromethanesulfonylphenyl]-3-[pyridin-2-yl]-1,2-oxazole (98 mg, 0.26 mmol), KCN (230 mg, 4 mmol), NiBr2(PPh3)2 (52.4 mg, 0.07 mmol), and PPh3 (42 mg, 0.16 mmol) in acetonitrile (1 mL) was treated with zinc powder (20 mg, 0.3 mmol) and the mixture was heated overnight at 60° C. Silica gel chromatography of the resulting mixture using a gradient of hexane to ethyl acetate afforded 15 mg (23%) of 5-[3-cyanophenyl]-3-[pyridin-2-yl]-1,2-oxazole as a white solid.
