Abstract

The N-(alkylphenylphosphinoyl)-O-methanesulphonylhydroxylamines RPhP(0)NHOS02Me (R = Me, Et, or Pri) react readily with MeNH2 or NaOMe-MeOH to give products resulting from phenyl, but not alkyl, migration. ... N-( Diphenylphosphinoyl) hydroxylamine (2 , R = Ph) and some of its derivatives have recently been described.' The 0-methanesulphonate (3, R = Ph) is of particular interest because of its ready base-induced rearrangement; eg with NaOMe ...
