✦ Synopsis
We describe a unique interaction of aromatic aldehydes with acrylonitrile, induced by iodotrichlorosilane (ITCS), which directly yields arylidene-3-aminoprop-2-enals.
We recently disclosed' a unique and general redox reaction of aliphatic or aromatic aldehydes with simple aliphatic or aromatic nitriles, which leads directly to amides (equation 1). The use of iodotrichlorosilane (ITCS) (generated in situ) to effect this reaction is mandatory.
