I found a couple of examples where と (and not こと) seems to serve as a
nominalizer.

(Segmentation is mine)

> 彼は本を手に取る **と** また読み続けた。
>
> 人は生まれる **と** 直ぐ死に始める。
>
> 家を出る **と** 直ぐに雨が降り始めた。

Is と a nominalizer?

question
particle-と
Is と also a nominalizer? 「彼は本を手に取るとまた読み続けた」「家を出るとすぐに雨が降り始めた」
This と is a particle conjunction that expresses a conditional. It's usually
translated as "if" or "when" in English. It doesn't have anything to do with
nouns.
