A heterogeneous fluoride catalyst was found to enable the straightforward formation of alkenyl nitriles from the reaction of aldehydes and simple or substituted acetonitriles, in the presence of commercially available silazanes and in solvent-free conditions. The protocol afforded the products in good to excellent yields with selectivity values dependent on the nature of the substrates. It represents an alternative to classic approaches using stoichiometric strong bases, and the catalyst can be easily recovered and reused for consecutive cycles.

The condensation of trimethylsilylacetic compounds 2a, 2b, (nitrile, ester) and trimethylsilylmethylphosphonic esters 2c with aromatic aldehydes 1, in the presence of alkali metal fluorides (potassium, cesium) unsupported or supported on alumina, magnesium oxide or clay (montmorillonite K10), is achieved by solvent-free techniques in a domestic microwave oven.The factors governing the reaction selectivity are studied.The silyl-Reformatsky reaction takes place in the presence of dried fluoride and leads to the silylated compound 3, which can be subsequently hydrolyzed to 4.The latter can be dehydrated to give the alkene 5.Keywords - alkali metal fluoride / silyl-Reformatsky reaction / nucleophilic activation / inorganic solid supports / trimethylsilyl-acetic compounds / microwave irradiation

Reaction between bromoacetonitrile and carbonyl compounds in the presence of zinc and trimethylchlorosilane produced β-trimethylsilyloxynitriles in excellent yields.The reaction also works well with chloroacetonitrile as source of cyanomethyl carbanion.
