Abstract A convenient scaleable process for the preparation of substituted phenylglycines 2 by a modified Strecker reaction is described. Bisulfite-mediated addition of benzylamine and cyanide anion to substituted benzaldehydes 3 gave the aminonitriles 4 which were hydrolysed in two steps to the N-protected amino acid 1. Debenzylation using catalytic transfer hydrogenation gave the title compounds
imidazolium hydrogensulfate ([Sipim]HSO4) as a heterogeneous acidic ionic liquid is described. This heterogeneous ionic liquid was used as catalyst for the synthesis of α-aminonitriles by a one-pot condensation of aldehydes, amines, and trimethylsilyl cyanide at roomtemperature. Catalyst could be recycled for several times without any additional treatment.Graphical AbstractA simple and efficient procedure
