Treatment of tertiary alcohols with silver salts (AgClO4, AgBF4, or AgOTf) and trimethylsilyl cyanide (TMSCN), followed by hydrolysis, directly affords excellent yields of corresponding isocyanides. This reaction proceeds selectively with tertiary alcohols in the presence of primary and secondary alcohols.
