Thanassi, John W. published the artcileReactions of aminomalononitrile with electrophiles, Category: nitriles-buliding-blocks, the publication is Journal of Molecular Evolution (1975), 7(1), 65-73, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.
Aminomalononitrile reacted with electrophiles, aldehydes and CH2:CHCN, under very mild conditions of temperature and pH to produce intermediates which, after acid hydrolysis, yielded amino acids, glycine, DL-erythro- and DL-threo-β-hydroxyaspartic acids, DL-glutamic acid, DL-threonine and allothreonine. The mechanism of their formation and the possible significance of these reactions in prebiotic syntheses are discussed.
