Reaction Steps

A mixture of 1,1′-carbonyldiimidazole (5 g, 31 mmol) and 2-hydroxy-2-methylpropanenitrile (2.6 g, 31 mmol) in DCM was stirred at rt overnight. Water was added and the organic layer was separated, dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated in vacuo. The resulting residue was purified by chromatography on silica gel, eluting with ethyl acetate, to give 2.7 g (50%) of the title compound.
