Description

p-Toluenesulfonylmethyl isocyanide is a synthetic reagent used in the synthesis of triplet drugs with the 1,3,5-trioxazatriquinane skeleton, pyrroles, oxazoles and in imidazoles. It serves as an isonitrile component in a diastereoselective Passerini reaction. Furthermore, it is used in the Van Leusen reaction to convert aldehydes to nitriles.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand.
