Abstract :
Alkyl cyanides are prepared in good to excellent yields (average yield 93% )by treatment of alcohols and thiols with 2,4,6-trichloro[1,3,5]triazine/n-Bu4NCN in refluxing acetonitrile. This method is highly selective for conversion of 1° alcohols in the presence of 2° and 3° ones and thiols.
