An asymmetric Strecker-type reaction of nitrones using acetone cyanohydrin as a source of HCN has been realized. A magnesium-tartramide complex, generated from (R,R)-2,3-dihydroxy-1,4-di(pyrrolidin-1-yl)-butane-1,4-dione and MeMgBr, promoted transcyanation from the bromomagnesium salt of the cyanohydrin, in the presence of a catalytic amount of DBU, to afford the corresponding optically active (S)-α-amino nitrile derivatives. The reaction was applicable to various nitrones giving high-to-excellent enantioselectivities.
