Abstract

Synthesis of N-primary alkylhydroxamic acids is described in this paper by benzoyloxylation (benzoyl peroxide) of n-alkylamine and modification of the usual reaction conditions to stabilise the -alkyl- -benzoylhydroxylamine as the hydrochloride; this circumvents acyl transfer to amide. -Acylation of the formed hydroxylamine leads to the formation of N-primary alkyl- -acyl- -acylhydroxylamine, which is debenzoylated to hydroxamic acid using hydrazine ...
