  ABSTRACT: The efficient dehydrosulfurization of thioamides to nitriles was carried out using indium(III) triflate as a catalyst. Based on the results of the initial study, the optimal reaction conditions required 5 mol% of indium(III) triflate with toluene as the practical solvent. Various thioamides were successfully converted to nitriles in high yields.
