A Sterically Congested [alpha]-Cyanoamine as a Cyanating Reagent: Cyanation of Acetals and Orthoesters

The cyanation of acetals and orthoesters by using a sterically congested [alpha]-cyanoamine as a cyanating reagent was investigated. The [alpha]-cyanoamine effectively facilitated cyanation in the presence of trichlorosilyl triflate to produce a variety of cyanated adducts in excellent yields. Analy...

Zusammenfassung:The cyanation of acetals and orthoesters by using a sterically congested [alpha]-cyanoamine as a cyanating reagent was investigated. The [alpha]-cyanoamine effectively facilitated cyanation in the presence of trichlorosilyl triflate to produce a variety of cyanated adducts in excellent yields. Analysis of the reaction mixture by 1H NMR spectroscopy revealed that trichlorosilyl triflate produced an oxocarbenium cation species as an intermediate.
