Abstract

Various α, β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds, such as α, β-unsaturated esters, α, β- unsaturated ketones, α, β-unsaturated nitriles, and α, β-unsaturated amides, were directly converted to the corresponding a-hydroxyimino carbonyl compounds in high yields on treatment with butyl nitrite and phenylsilane in the presence of a catalytic amount of N, N′- bis (2-ethoxycarbonyl-3-oxobutylidene) ethylenediaminatocobalt (II) complex under mild ...
