Article abstract of DOI:10.1002/hlca.19800630814

The expected 2,5-anhydro-D-allononitrile 11 was obtained when the 2-O-benzoyl-3-deoxy-3-trifluoroacetamido-D-ribofuranosyl bromide reacted with mercuric cyanide, whereas the isomeric 1,2-O(1-cyanoethylidene) derivative was formed from the 2-O-acetylated halide; no reaction occured when the halide was 2-O-nitrobenzoylated.
