A number of new optically active heteroaryl cyanohydrins have been prepared by hydrocyanation under micro-aqueous conditions catalyzed by almond meal (containing (R)-oxynitrilase). Substituent effects on the reaction are discussed. This micro-aqueous method provides an efficient, convenient and economical approach to optically active cyanohydrins.

A practical high through-put continuous process for the synthesis of chiral cyanohydrins is reported. Pretreated almond meal (or other solid raw enzyme sources) was loaded in a column to form a reactor, to which were attached a supplying system to deliver a solution of substrate and HCN in solvent on one end and a collecting-separating system on the other end. By controlling the flowing rate, optimal conditions were achieved for the hydrocyanation of various aromatic carboxaldehydes in a "micro-aqueous" medium to produce chiral cyanohydrins in high yields and high enantiomeric excess (ee) with high substrate/catalyst ratio.
