A solid-phase route to N-cyanoamides

Org Lett. 2002 Feb 21;4(4):597-8. doi: 10.1021/ol0172020.

Abstract

[reaction: see text] A new method for the solid-phase synthesis of cyanamides is described. The attachment of a secondary amine to solid support is accomplished using Merrifield resin. After functionalization, cleavage is readily achieved with cyanogen bromide to afford the desired cyanamide.
