A convenient reagent for the conversion of aldoximes into nitriles and isonitriles

Abstract

For the dehydroxylation of aldoximes with 4-nitro-1-((trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl)-imidazole (NTSI), slight modifications of reaction conditions resulted in significantly different reaction paths to provide either nitriles or isonitriles. The challenging conversion of aldoximes into isonitriles was achieved under mild conditions.
