Abstract
In a procedure of extreme simplicity and rapidity a mixture of an arom atic primary amine, copper (I) cyanide and an alkyl nitrite in dimethy l sulphoxide yielded fair to moderate yields of the corresponding nitr iles. Side processes observed were reduction (NH2 --> H), nitration (N H2 --> NO2) and hydroxylation (NH2 --> OH). In the case of polyhaloani lines halogen dance products could be detected.
