Abstract

A high-yielding, practical two-step procedure for the preparation of N-benzylhydroxylamine starting from dibenzylamine is described. As specified in the detailed protocol, the reaction can be conveniently carried out on a > 0.5 mol laboratory scale.

Key words

N-benzylhydroxylamine - N-benzylnitrones - 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition - secondary amine oxidation - nitrone hydrolysis
