Abstract

Abstract Oxidation of N, N-disubstituted hydroxylamines by N-methylmorpholine N-oxide (NMO) and catalytic amounts of tetra-n-propylammonium perruthenate (TPAP) at room temperature occurs very rapidly to give the corresponding nitrones, which can be trapped by dipolarophiles present in the reaction mixture, in excellent yields. A competitive experiment in the presence of a primary alcohol gave a> 50: 1 nitrone to aldehyde ratio.
