Selective Synthesis of Isocyanides from Secondary Alcohols by a New Type of Oxidation–Reduction Condensation

Selective synthesis of isocyanides from secondary alcohols via alkyl diphenylphosphinites is established by a new type of oxidation–reduction condensation in controlling the ambident reactivity of cyanide anion. In the presence of ZnO, isocyanides are obtained exclusively in moderate to high yields....
