Chemoselective functionalizations of intrinsically less reactive C(sp3)–H bonds of alkyl nitriles are of particular interest to the chemical community because these strategies provide opportunities for the introduction of important cyanoalkyl groups onto target frameworks in a step-economical fashio...
