Article abstract of DOI:10.1002/hlca.19940770814

The paper extends a previously published report <4> on chemical properties of α-amino nitriles and of members of the C3H4N2 ensemble (Scheme 1) as observed in experiments carried out under non-aqueous conditions.The reactions investigated and the observations made are summarized in some detail in the English footnotes (*) referring to Schemes 1-17 and Fig. 1.
