Abstract
Different aldehydes and amines react with acyl cyanides in the presence of a catalytic amount of the Schreiner thiourea catalyst to give the corresponding N-acyl amino nitriles in high yields. The scope of the reaction is broad and both aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes and amines can readily be used.
Key words
acylcyanation - α-amino nitriles - multicomponent reactions - organocatalysis - acyl cyanides
