Abstract
A one-pot reaction of alcohols with trimethylsilyl cyanide and methanesulfonic acid with subsequent neutralization by triethylamine and dehydration by tosyl chloride and pyridine gave the corresponding isocyanides in moderate-to-high yields. This method was used to synthesize tertiary and benzylic isocyanides from the corresponding alcohols.
Key words
isocyanides - alcohols - Ritter reactions
