Abstract

Deprotonation of a chiral alpha-oxygenated nitrile with the base 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidylmagnesiumchloride, TMPMgCl, gives rise to a chiral magnesiated nitrile, and thisanion has sufficient configurational stability at low temperature to allow the formation ofhighly enantiomerically enriched substituted nitrile products after electrophilic quench.
