Main observation and conclusion: We have developed an efficient synthesis of acrylonitriles via mild base promoted tandem nucleophilic substitution-isomerization of α-cyanohydrin methanesulfonates with alkenylboronic acids. This transition metal-free protocol works under simple and mild conditions and offers good chemical yields for a wide range of substrates and demonstrates good functional group tolerance.

Strecker reaction of various substituted aromatic aldehydes, heteroaromatic aldehydes, aliphatic aldehydes and α,β-unsaturated aldehydes with trimethylsilyl cyanide (TMSCN) was realized in the presence of 5 mol % of MgI2 etherate in a mild, efficient and highly chemoselective manner under solvent-free conditions.

An enantioselective preparation of O-acetylcyanohydrins has been accomplished by a three-step telescoped continuous process. The modular components enabled an accurate control of two sequential biotransformations, safe handling of an in situ generated hazardous gas, and in-line stabilization of products. This method proved to be advantageous over the batch protocols in terms of reaction time (40 min vs 345 min) and ease of operation, opening up access to reactions which have often been neglected due to safety concerns.
