A metal-free, mild and chemodivergent transformation involving nitroalkanes has been developed. Under optimized reaction conditions, in the presence of trichlorosilane and a tertiary amine, aliphatic nitroalkanes were selectively converted into amines or nitriles. Furthermore, when chiral β-substituted nitro compounds were reacted, the stereochemical integrity of the stereocenter was maintained and α-functionalized nitriles were obtained with no loss of enantiomeric excess. The methodology was successfully applied to the synthesis of chiral β-cyano esters, α-aryl alkylnitriles, and TBS-protected cyanohydrins, including direct precursors of four active pharmaceutical ingredients (ibuprofen, tembamide, aegeline and denopamine).

A straightforward process for the preparation of optically active protected cyanohydrins, important building blocks for the synthesis of drugs and agrochemicals, has been established. Lipase B from Candida Antarctica (CAL-B) catalysed the kinetic resoluti

Chiral acyloins of high optical purity have been obtained in good yields by enzyme catalyzed formation of optically active cyanohydrins, followed by hydroxyl protection and reaction with a Grignard reagent.
