N, N-Dimethylpyridin-4-amine (DAMP) (10 mol%) was successfully employed as catalyst for cyanoethoxycarbonylation of aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes at room temperature under solvent free condition to give corresponding ethylcyanocarbonates in excellent isolated yield (up to 95%) in 15-90 min. Simple experimental conditions and product isolation procedure has made this protocol quite attractive for the synthesis of ethylcyanocarbonates in an environment-friendly manner.
