The reaction of 2-hetaryl-2-(tetrahydrofuran-2-ylidene)acetonitriles and 6‑chloro-2-(2-hetarylidene)-3‑oxohexanenitriles with amines was studied. It was shown that the reaction of primary aliphatic amines with 6-chloro-2-(2-hetarylidene)-3-oxohexanenitriles takes place through a stage involving the formation of 2-hetaryl-2-(tetrahydrofuran-2-ylidene)acetonitriles followed by opening of the furanylidene fragment of the latter and the formation of 2-(2-hetaryl)-6-hydroxy-3-(R-amino)-2-hexenenitriles.
