Abstract

Reaction of NaCN with N-(tosylmethyl)ureas, prepared by condensation of urea with aldehydes and p-toluenesulfinic acid, has been studied. Generally, this reaction afforded the corresponding α-ureido nitriles. Some mechanistic aspects of cyanide-anion amidoalkylation with N-(tosylmethyl)ureas were discussed based on DFT calculations.
