| Application: | Trimethylsilyl cyanide was used: • for derivatization of complex metabolite mixtures by GC-MS • as cyanide source in enantioselective organocatalytic Strecker-type reaction of aliphatic N,N-dialkylhydrazones • as reagent for the cyanosilylation of aldehydes in near quantitative yield via catalysis by silylene-bridged rare earth oxide complexes • in asymmetric cyanosilylation with chiral dinuclear Ti(IV) complexes |
| General description: | Trimethylsilyl cyanide participates in carbonyl aminomethylation via α-silyloxy nitriles. |
