NitrilesQ 0520 Enantioselective Cyanosilylation of Ketones Catalyzed by a Nitrogen-Containing

Bifunctional Catalyst. — The easily accessible amide BTAL allows highly enantio-selective formation of cyanohydrins from aromatic ketones. Starting from aliphatic ketones, moderate enantioselectivity is observed. — (XIONG, Y.; HUANG, X.; GOU, S.; HUANG, J.; WEN, Y.; FENG*, X.; Adv. Synth.
