Title: MgI<sub>2</sub> Etherate-Catalysed Strecker Reaction: A Facile and Efficient Synthesis of α-Aminonitriles from Aldimines and Trimethylsilyl Cyanide
Abstract: A mild and efficient procedure for the synthesis of α-aminonitriles is achieved by treatment of aldimines with trimethylsilyl cyanide catalysed by MgI2 etherate.
