A Catalytic Synthesis of Nitriles from Aldehydes and Alcohols in the Presence of Aqueous Ammonia by Oxidation with NiSO4–K2S2O8

Abstract
Aromatic and conjugated aldehydes were converted to nitriles by nickel-catalyzed oxidation in the presence of aqueous ammonia with K2S2O8 under the basic aqueous conditions. This reaction could be applied to alcohols as the starting materials.
