A synthesis of beta-oxonitriles is reported via the generation of (RRCLiCN)-R-1-C-2 species followed by the trapping with variously decorated Weinreb amides. The optimization study revealed that lithiation of acetonitriles is best accomplished by deprotonation with MeLi-LiBr at low temperature. The protocol can be conveniently adapted to the synthesis of alpha-mono or alpha,alpha-disubstituted cyanoketones. N-15- and O-17-NMR data are reported for selected compounds.

Abstract
A synthesis of beta-oxonitriles is reported via the generation of (RRCLiCN)-R-1-C-2 species followed by the trapping with variously decorated Weinreb amides. The optimization study revealed that lithiation of acetonitriles is best accomplished by deprotonation with MeLi-LiBr at low temperature. The protocol can be conveniently adapted to the synthesis of alpha-mono or alpha,alpha-disubstituted cyanoketones. N-15- and O-17-NMR data are reported for selected compounds.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
