© Springer-Verlag 2014. A simple yet effective method for synthesis of benzyl nitriles was developed via ultrasound-assisted cyanation of benzyl halides with Amberlite IRA 900 supported cyanide ion under solvent-free conditions. Benzyl nitriles were obtained in good to excellent yields under short r...
