Procedure

To a stirred solution of 5-bromobenzo[c][1, 2, and 5]oxadiazole (2.0 g, 10.050 mmol) in DMF (50 mL) was added CuCN (1.79 g, 230.10 mmol) at RT under an inert atmosphere. The reaction mixture was then heated at 140° C. for 24 h., cooled to RT, diluted with water (10 mL) and stirred for 10 min. The precipitated solid was filtered off and the filtrate was concentrated in vacuo to obtain the crude product. The crude material was purified via silica gel column chromatography to afford benzo[c][1,2,5]oxadiazole-5-carbonitrile (0.7 g, 48%) as a yellow solid.
