A novel modification of the Ritter reaction using trimethylsilyl cyanide

A new modification of the Ritter reaction using trimethylsilyl cyanide (Me3SiCN) is described, which converts alcohols to their corresponding formamides in high yields using a convenient procedure. The reaction conditions and mechanism are discussed. In some cases, new formamides are synthesized which cannot be prepared by the classical Ritter reaction.

Electron-Transfer Substitution Reactions: Facilitation by the Cyano Group

It is now clear that a cyano group facilitates electron-transfer substitution reactions.Of particular interest is the demonstration that electron-transfer chain substitution at a saturated carbon atom has been achieved in the absence of a nitro group.
