Oximes amines, oxidation

For oximes, the word oxime is placed after the name of the aldehyde or ketone. If the carbonyl group is not the principal group, use the prefix hydroxyimino-. Compounds with the group Z = N—OR are named by a prefix alkyloxyimino- as oxime O-ethers or as O-substituted oximes. Compounds with the group r C=N(0)R are named by adding A-oxide after the name of the alkylideneaminc compound. For amine oxides, add the word oxide after the name of the base, with locants. For example, C5H5N—O is named pyridine A-oxide or pyridine 1-oxide.

One of the exciting results to come out of heterogeneous catalysis research since the early 1980s is the discovery and development of catalysts that employ hydrogen peroxide to selectively oxidize organic compounds at low temperatures in the liquid phase. These catalysts are based on titanium, and the important discovery was a way to isolate titanium in framework locations of the inner cavities of zeolites (molecular sieves). Thus, mild oxidations may be run in water or water-soluble solvents. Practicing organic chemists now have a way to catalytically oxidize benzene to phenols alkanes to alcohols and ketones primary alcohols to aldehydes, acids, esters, and acetals secondary alcohols to ketones primary amines to oximes secondary amines to hydroxyl-amines and tertiary amines to amine oxides. 

I.2. Oxidation of Amines Oxidation of primary amines is often viewed as a particularly convenient way to prepare hydroxylamines. However, their direct oxidation usually leads to complex mixtures containing nitroso and nitro compounds and oximes. However, oxidation to nitrones can be performed after their conversion into secondary amines or imines. Sometimes, oxidation of secondary amines rather than direct imine oxidation seems to provide a more useful and convenient way of producing nitrones. In many cases, imines are first reduced to secondary amines which are then treated with oxidants (26). This approach is used as a basis for a one-pot synthesis of asymmetrical acyclic nitrones starting from aromatic aldehydes (Scheme 2.5) (27a) and 3,4-dihydroisoquinoline-2-oxides (27b). 

Archibald and co-workers used a similar strategy of amine oxidation, followed by oxidative nitration, for the conversion of 5,10-diaminodispiro[3.1.3.1]decane to 5,5,10,10-tetranitrodispiro[3.1.3.1]decane (21). 5,10-Diaminodispiro[3.1.3.1]decane was prepared from the redaction of the corresponding oxime (19) with sodium in liquid ammonia-methanol. 5,10-Dinitrodispiro[3.1.3.1]decane (20) nndergoes oxidative nitration to give 5,5,10,10-tetranitrodispiro[3.1.3.1]decane (21) in 64 % yield. 

By analogy with the biogenesis of oximes via oxidation of amino acids or biogenic amines, the biosynthetic pathway for insertion of the ketoxime function into the antibiotic, nocardicin A (18), was shown to be dependent on the oxidation of the corresponding primary amine precursor of 18 by cytochrome PTSO ". Similarly, the formation of the ketoxime bond of verongamine (17) is attributed to the oxidation of a primary amine precursor .

Even though oxygen in small percentages catalyzes the reaction effectively, many other initiators have been disclosed, including peroxy compounds, ozonides, azo compounds, azines, amine oxides, oximes, hydrazines, and hypohalites.

As mentioned above, nitro compounds are obviously of great importance in organic chemistry and aryl nitro compounds are an important source of aniline derivatives (secs. 4.2.C.V, 4.8.D). Both amine oxides and nitrones have been synthetically exploited. Alkyl nitroso derivatives, however, usually cannot be isolated since they decompose in solution, although the aromatic derivatives are more stable in solution and can be used in synthesis (sec. 2.1 l.E). Treatment of a primary amine with excess peroxyacid is a useful preparative route to alkyl nitro compounds.588 Yields are highest for tertiary alkyl primary amines next come secondary, followed by primary alkyl. Peroxyacid oxidation of oximes also provides a route to alkyl nitro compounds.589 This method is convenient for preparing aromatic nitro compounds as in the oxidation of 2,6-dichloroaniline to 2,6-dichloronitrobenzene (441).590 Nitrones are 1,3-dipoles and have been used in 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions (sec. ll.ll.D).
