Abstract
The combination of TpRh(C2H4)2 and P(2-furyl)3 catalyzes the reaction of tertiary alkyl-substituted alkynes with tert-butylhydrazine providing 3,3,3-trisubstituted propionitrile derivatives. This reaction system is also applicable to 1,1-disubstituted propargyl alcohols and amines to afford the corresponding β-cyanohydrins and β-amino nitriles, respectively.
