Uncatalyzed Addition of TMSCN to Acylphosphonates

Abstract

The cyanosilylations of various alkyl- and arylphosphonates under comparatively mild conditions furnished the trimethylsilyloxycyanophosphonates in high yield. The addition to ketophosphonate functions works without the influence of a catalyst.

cyanohydrins - addition reactions - phosphorus - nucleophilic additions
