Abstract: 

Canning a carbon: During oxidation with O2, the cobalt(II) complex [Co(salmdpt)] (salmdptH2=bis[3‐(salicylideneimino)‐propyl]methylamine) reacts with a nitrile substrate to form the cyanide complex [Co(salmdpt)CN] (see structure) and the corresponding aldehyde, which contains one less carbon atom than the starting nitrile.
