Thermodynamic and kinetic control of a chemical process is the key to access desired products and states. Changes are made when a desired product is not accessible; one may manipulate the reaction with additional reagents, catalysts and/or protecting groups. Here we report the use of carbon dioxide to accelerate cyanohydrin synthesis under neutral conditions with an insoluble cyanide source (KCN) without generating toxic HCN. Under inert atmosphere, the reaction is essentially not operative due to the unfavored equilibrium. The utility of CO2-mediated selective cyanohydrin synthesis was further showcased by broadening Kiliani–Fischer synthesis under neutral conditions. This protocol offers an easy access to a variety of polyols, cyanohydrins, linear alkylnitriles, by simply starting from alkyl- and arylaldehydes, KCN and an atmospheric pressure of CO2.

The invention relates to the technical field of synthesis of compounds and specifically relates to a production process of high-purity and high-yield spirodiclofen. The production process comprises the following steps: performing an addition reaction on cyclohexanone which is taken as a starting material, so as to obtain 1-cyano-cyclohexanol; hydrolyzing and esterifying the 1-cyano-cyclohexanol, so as to obtain 1-hydroxylethyl formate; performing a condensation ring-closing reaction on the 1-hydroxylethyl formate, so as to obtain an intermediate caproate; and performing a reaction on the caproate and 2, 2-dimethylbutyryl chloride, so as to obtain the spirodiclofen. According to the production process, the problem in the prior art that the prepared spirodiclofen is low in purity and yield is solved; the spirodiclofen prepared by adopting the production process is high in purity and yield; and in addition, the raw material for preparing the spirodiclofen is easily obtained, and the operation is convenient.

Magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles in deep eutectic solvents (DESs) have been regard as excellent catalysts for highly efficient cyanosilylation of various aldehydes and epoxides using trimethylsilyl cyanide TMSCN in high yields with excellent selectivity. Fe3O4 nanoparticles were synthesized and applied as a catalyst for the preparation of a wide variety of cyanohydrins (α-hydroxy nitriles and β-hydroxy nitriles) in readily available urea-choline chloride deep eutectic solvent DES as the most promising environmentally benign and cost-effective green solvent. Magnetic DES operates at very mild reaction conditions and can be easily recycled without significant loss of its catalytic activity.
