General description
tert-Butyldimethylsilyl cyanide (TBDMSCN) is a bulkier trialkylsilylcyanide. It participates in the cyanosilylation of enantiopure 4-oxoazetidine-2-carbaldehydes. Addition of TBDMSCN to sterically hindered ketones in the presence of Lewis acid or base catalyst has been studied. ZnI2-catalyzed addition of TBDSCN to 2,2-dimethylcyclohexanone, 2,2,6-trimethylcyclohexanone and 2,2,6,6-tetramethylcyclohexanone affords protected cyanohydrins.
Application
tert-Butyldimethylsilyl cyanide may be used as reagent for the formation of β-isonitrile alcohols via epoxides.
