Description

General description

Trimethylsilyl cyanide participates in carbonyl aminomethylation via α-silyloxy nitriles.

Application

Trimethylsilyl cyanide was used:

for derivatization of complex metabolite mixtures by GC-MS
as cyanide source in enantioselective organocatalytic Strecker-type reaction of aliphatic N,N-dialkylhydrazones
as reagent for the cyanosilylation of aldehydes in near quantitative yield via catalysis by silylene-bridged rare earth oxide complexes
in asymmetric cyanosilylation with chiral dinuclear Ti(IV) complexes

Packaging

Packaging material contains granular sodium carbonate as a desiccant.

The use of trimethylsilyl cyanide derivatization for robust and broad-spectrum high-throughput gas chromatography-mass spectrometry based metabolomics.

Bekzod Khakimov et al.

Analytical and bioanalytical chemistry, 405(28), 9193-9205 (2013-10-05)

Reproducible and quantitative gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS)-based metabolomics analysis of complex biological mixtures requires robust and broad-spectrum derivatization. We have evaluated derivatization of complex metabolite mixtures using trimethylsilyl cyanide (TMSCN) and the most commonly used silylation reagent N-methyl-N-(trimethylsilyl)trifluoroacetamide (MSTFA).
