An electron donor–acceptor complex-initiated α-cyanation of tertiaryamines has been described. The reaction protocol provides a novel method to synthesize various α-aminonitriles under mild conditions. The reaction can proceed smoothly without the presence of photocatalysts and transition metal catalysts, and either oxidants are unnecessary or O2 is the only oxidant. The practicality of this method
