Niobium fluoride (NbF5): A highly efficient catalyst for solvent-free cyanosilylation of aldehydes
Sung, Soo Kim,Rajagopal, Gurusamy
, p. 215 - 218 (2007/10/03)
An efficient method for the addition of trimethylsilylcyanide (TMSCN) to aldehydes using dispersed NbF5 as the catalyst is described. Cyano transfer from TMSCN to aldehydes occurs within 10 minutes at room temperature in the presence of 0.5 mol
Enzymatic Preparation of Optically Active Cyanohydrin Acetates
Almsick, Andreas van,Buddrus, Joachim,Hoenicke-Schmidt, Petra,Laumen, Kurt,Schneider, Manfred P.
, p. 1391 - 1393 (2007/10/02)
A series of cyanohydrin acetates (1)-(47) of widely varying structures, potential chiral building blocks for numerous synthetic applications, has been prepared in good chemical and often high optical yields by enzymatic hydrolysis of their racemic acetates in the presence of an ester hydrolase from Pseudomonas sp.
