Abstract
A variety of [C-13]-labelled aromatic nitriles have been prepared in g ood yield from iodoaromatic substrates. Cyanation was achieved by reac tion of aryl iodides with a mixture of potassium [C-13]cyanide and cop per (I) iodide in an aprotic solvent at high temperature. The use of p re-prepared carbon-labelled copper (I) cyanide was therefore obviated.
