Cu(I)Cl can give a colorless and well-crystallized complex with 4 molecules of benzylisocyanide.This complex is able to transfer the benzylisocyanide ligands to primary and secondary amines and to form N-benzylforimidoyl derivatives.Catalytic hydrogenolysis removes the benzyl group, and free formimidoyl compounds are obtained in good yield.The method which succeds with aliphatic amines, could not be applied to the secondary amino group of tetrahydropterines.
