Silica-bonded S-sulfonic acid (SBSSA) is employed as a recyclablecatalyst for the synthesis of α-amino nitriles. These syntheses were performed via a one-pot three-component condensation of aldehydes, amines, and trimethylsilyl cyanide under mild reaction conditions at room temperature.
Silica Boron Sulfuric Acid Nanoparticles: As an Efficient and Reusable Catalyst for the Large-Scale Synthesis of α-Amino Nitriles Using the Strecker Reaction
A highly efficient and green procedure for the large-scale synthesis of α-amino nitriles using three-component condensation of carbonyl compounds, amines, and trimethylsilylcyanide has been developed. Silica boron sulfuricacid nanoparticles (SBSANs) are found as an efficient heterogeneous catalyst for the promotion of this process at room temperature undersolvent-freeconditions. This protocol offers
