Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of organic chemical synthesis, and in particular relates to a method for directly oxidizing and cyanating secondary amines to synthesize α-aminonitrile compounds. Background technique [0002] As an important synthon in organic synthesis, cyano group can be used as the precursor of many other functional groups. Cyano groups are widely used in chemical industry, pesticides, functional materials, pigments and spices and other fields. In particular, in the pharmaceutical industry, cyano groups are widely used in the structural modification of small molecule drugs, and the strategy of substituting cyano groups has become one of the important synthetic strategies for compound structure optimization. In addition, the cyano group is a biological electron emitter of functional groups such as halogen and carbonyl, which can enhance the interaction between small drug molecules and target proteins, so it is widely use...
