N-Alkylformimidoylcyanides (RRCHNCHCN, 1) were obtained through a very efficient oxidation of N-alkylaminoacetonitriles (RRCHNHCH2CN, 2) by aq. NaOCl. The reaction was run under very mild and simple conditions and afforded products (as isomer mixtures; ratio of 70–99%) in short reaction times (30–180 min), and in good to excellent yields (67–97%).
