Copper-catalyzed three-component oxycyanation of alkenes

Abstract

A copper-catalyzed, three-component reaction for the direct oxycyanation of various alkenes with aryl diacyl peroxides and trimethylsilyl cyanide has been developed. Both unactivated alkenes and styrenes are reliable substrates and produce β-cyanohydrin derivatives. An asymmetric version of this reaction has been conducted and proceeds well.
