Chemoselective hydrolysis of heterocyclic nitriles can be achieved by an easy to use immobilized biocatalyst prepared from Rhodococcus sp . Pyrimidine‐2‐carbonitrile ( 2a ) and 3‐chloropyridazine‐4‐carbonitrile ( 4a ) were converted into the corresponding amides while from 2‐ethoxycarbonyl‐4‐pyridinecarbonitrile ( 1a ), 6‐methylpyridazine‐3‐carbonitrile ( 3a ), 3‐chloropyridazine‐4‐carbonitrile ( 4a ), 3‐ethoxycarbonyl‐4,5‐dihydroisoxazole‐5‐carbonitrile ( 8a ), indole‐3‐carbonitrile ( 9a ) and indole‐3‐ylacetonitrile ( 10a ) the acids were formed.
