  ABSTRACT: Indium(III) triflate, a trivalent indium reagent, was shown to be a highly-efficient catalyst for the conversion of primary amides to the corresponding nitriles. The successful reactions required 5 mol% of indium(III) triflate, and toluene was proved to be the most suitable solvent. Various amides were subjected to this method, and each produced the corresponding nitriles in excellent yields.
