摘要
A method for cyanation reaction of ketones and ketimines having lower reactivity than aldehydes and aldimines with TMSCN in the presence of N-heterocyclic carbene prepared from 1,3-bis(2,4,6-trimetbylphenyl)imidazolium chloride and potassium tert-butoxide, as a nucleophilic organocatalyst, is described. These cyanations of ketones and ketimines afford the corresponding products in good yields under mild reaction conditions.
