Supported Ionic Liquid-Like Phases have been found to be efficient organocatalysts for the synthesis of cyanohydrin esters under solvent-free conditions by an “electrophile-nucleophile dual activation” based on hydrogen bond formation. The combination of

Cyanation reactions of carbonyl compounds with methyl cyanoformate or acetyl cyanide catalyzed by 5 mol % of 1,5,7-triazabicyclo[4,4,0]dec-5-ene (TBD) were examined. Using methyl cyanoformate, the corresponding cyanohydrin carbonates were readily obtained in high yield for aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes and ketones. Similar results were obtained when acetyl cyanide was used as the cyanide source. The polymer-supported catalyst, PS-TBD, also acted as a good catalyst for this reaction. PS-TBD was easily recovered and reused with minimal activity loss.

Using an acetone precipitation method, crude (S)-hydroxynitrile lyase [(S)-MeHNL] was separated from Munihot esculenta (cassava) leaves, and used directly as biocatalyst to catalyze asymmetric cyanohydrination and produce cyanohydrins with enantiomeric purities (≥90% ee) significantly greater than those previously reported. The use of a water/i-Pr2O system with an enzyme, NaCN, and appropriate amounts of acetic acid is crucial in improving the stereoselectivity of cyanohydrin formation by minimizing the non-enzymatic reaction and the racemization of the chiral products. The proposed isolation method for crude (S)-MeHNL has a high value because of its simplicity, and low cost as well as the high activity of the crude (S)-MeHNL.
