Abstract A simple and efficient oxidative conversion of benzyl derivatives of halides, amines, alcohols, and aldehydes into corresponding nitriles is described using trans- 3,5-dihydroperoxy-3,5-dimethyl-1,2-dioxolane in the presence of NH4Br. The reactions proceeded smoothly at room temperature to afford the products in high-to-excellent yields.
