General description

Carbon dative bond formation by tert-butyl isocyanide on the germanium (100) surface has been reported. It also forms complexes with metals and inserts into metal-carbon bonds to form iminoacyls.

Application

tert-Butyl isocyanide was used in the synthesis of coumarines, 4H-chromenes and isoxazolines. It was also used to trap 2-cyclopropylidene-1,3-diones.
