hello friend,
i had been working in project in which iam converting
sulfone to nitrile. iam success to convert it , but the problem
is in the isolation of nitrile.
process;
sulfone,in IPA then add NaCN and water stirr at 60-70°c
then slowly cool it.
As per tlc nitrile is forming 89% but not isolated
please help me

You're too lazy to formulate your problem in order for someone else to solve it for you. You don't provide sufficient info for an answer, while you
provide insignificant details (TLC shows 89% yield? yeah, right)... Obviously, a nitrile can be anything from acetonitrile to to a complex natural
product, hence isolation/purification will vary accordingly. Amazingly, do they actually pay such an obviously incompetent chemist?

All I wander is how is he able to transform a sulfone into a nitrile? In one step? He might not be that incompetent after all. Or perhaps he is even
so extremely incompetent as to misname a sulfate for a sulfone.
But I think that someone giving no useful information also expects no useful information.
