✦ Synopsis

Primary and q econdery alkyl isocyanides and phenyl isocyanide react with bydrogwn chloride to compounds the structure cf which waa proved, several years ago, to be Ia-b (1). This reaction is the only hewn example of oligomerization of isocyanides by acid species where C-N-addition haa been proved; oligomerization of ieocyanides by BF 3.CWt2 (2a,b) or acyl chlorides(2b) proceeds by the C-C-addition.

We felt that it might be interesting tc verify if this reaction occurs also with t-butyl isocyanide. The tertiary isocyanides are known to undergo some specific reactions with acid species

The title compound, [Cu(C 5 H 9 N) 4 ]ClÁH 2 O, was obtained from the reaction of copper(II) chloride hydrate with KCN in the presence of two equivalents of tert-butylisocyanide. The reaction proceeds via the reduction of copper and the formation of (CN) 2 . The compound shows a tetrahedrally surrou
