Versatile intermediates for the synthesis of N ‐aryl‐α‐amino acids and N , N ‐disubstituted 1,2‐diamines can now be synthesized with high efficiency by the ruthenium‐catalyzed oxidative cyanation of tertiary amines. The use of hydrogen peroxide as an oxidant in the presence of NaCN/AcOH or HCN provides the corresponding α‐aminonitriles (see reaction).
