34. (a) This is much better than 1a, which gives 30% conversion for methacrylonitrile under the same conditions (for a similar reaction in toluene, see ref 6a). Interestingly, 1b and analogues were reported to give very good results with acrylonitrile, see: ref 3b and

37. 2 are much more active than 1a, providing 60 and 90% of conversion respectively, after 6 h (ref 9).
