Notes:
α-Alkali-metalated isocyanides, which can be obtained from isocyanides and bases, can be used for nucleophilic introduction of (masked) α-aminoalkyl groups. Intramolecular ring-closure may then follow if a nucleophile combines at the electron sextet of the isocyanide carbon. Treatment of α-alkali-metalated isocyanides with electrophilic agents permits rapid and efficient synthesis of, inter alia, 2- and 3-amino alcohols, straight-chain, branched, and β-functional α-amino acids, olefins, vinyl isocyanides, and of a large number of mainly five-, but also six- and seven-membered aza-, diaza-, oxa-aza-, and thia-aza heterocycles.
