A novel approach for the synthesis of α-aminonitriles using Mitsunobu’s reagent under solvent-free conditions
摘要:
A highly efficient, one-pot, three-component, solvent-free protocol for the synthesis of alpha-aminonitriles starting from their corresponding carbonyl compounds, amines, using Mitsunobu's reagent has been developed. Diversity of alpha-aminonitriles has been synthesized in good to excellent yields (80-99%) using various kinds of aldehydes/ketones and a variety of amines. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved,
