Pyridines hydroxylamine

Dining preparation of an unspecified oxime, the carbonyl compound, pyridine, hydroxylamine hydrochloride and sodium acetate were heated in a stainless steel autoclave. At 90°C a sudden reaction caused a pressure surge to 340 bar, when the bursting disk failed. The reaction had been run previously and uneventfully on one-tenth scale in a glass lined autoclave. 

For water insoluble aldehydes or ketones, the following alternative procedure may be used. Reflux a mixture of 0-6 g. of the aldehyde or ketone, 0 5 g. of hydroxylamine hydrochloride, 5 ml. of ethanol and 0 5 ml. of pyridine on a water bath for 15-60 minutes. Remove the alcohol either by distillation (water bath) or by evaporation of the hot solution in a stream of air (water pump). Add 5 ml. of water to the cooled residue, cool in an ice bath and stir until the oxime crystallises Filter off the solid, wash it with a little water and dry. Recrystallise from alcohol (95 per cent, or more dilute), benzene, or benzene - light petroleum (b.p. 60-80°).

The most useful general method for the C-acylation of pyrroles is the Vilsmeier-Haack procedure in which pyrrole is treated with the phosphoryl chloride complex (55a, b) of an AiA-dialkylamide (54). The intermediate imine salt (56) is hydrolyzed subsequently under mildly alkaline conditions to give the acylated pyrrole (57). On treatment of the imminium salt (56 R =H) with hydroxylamine hydrochloride and one equivalent of pyridine and heating in DMF, 2-cyanopyrrole (58) is formed (80CJC409). 

Alkyl-5-arylisoxazoles (303) were prepared by the regiospecific reaction of appropriate 1,3-diketones (302) (R = alkyl or perfluoroalkyl) with hydroxylamine hydrochloride in pyridine (79MI41601). 

The reaction of flavylium salts (403a) with hydroxylamine in pyridine gave 2,5-dihy-droisoxazoles (404) in an analogous manner (75T2884). Pyrimidines have also been converted into isoxazoles, and the reaction of the pyrimidines (405) with hydroxylamine hydrochloride gave the isoxazoles (338). 

The reaction of appropriate 1,3-diketones (302) with hydroxylamine hydrochloride in pyridine (79MI41601) has been reported to result in a regiospecific synthesis of 3-alkyl-5-arylisoxazoles, as has the reaction of an a -bromoenone (307) with hydroxylamine hydrochloride in ethanol in the presence of potassium carbonate (81H(16)145). Regiospecific syntheses of 5-alkyl-3-phenylisoxazoles also result from the reaction of an a-bromoenone (307) with hydroxylamine in the presence of sodium ethoxide (81H(16)145). 3-Aryl-5-methylisoxazoles were prepared from phosphonium salts (304) and hydroxylamine (80CB2852). 

The reaction of a dibromochalcone with hydroxylamine hydrochloride in pyridine gave three products with the expected 2-isoxazoline product as the predominate compound. A ring bromination product and an isoxazole were also isolated (70UC796). The reaction of hydroxylamine with /S-thiosulfates of propiophenone at reflux produced 3-phenyl-2-isoxazo-line (455). At room temperature a bis-Michael product (456) was produced. The reaction with N -phenylhydroxylamine yielded a mono-Michael type product (457) (74CPB1990). 

Dimethyl ketals and enol ethers are stable to the conditions of oxime formation (hydroxylamine acetate or hydroxylamine hydrochloride-pyridine). Thioketals and hemithioketals are cleaved to the parent ketones by cadmium carbonate and mercuric chloride. Desulfurization of thioketals with Raney nickel leads to the corresponding methylene compounds, while thioenol ethers give the corresponding olefin. In contrast, desulfurization of hemithioketals regenerates the parent ketone. ... 

Hydroxypregna-5,16-dien-20-one Acetate Oxime 3j5-Hydroxy-pregna-5,16-dien-20-one acetate (30 g) is dissolved in 300 ml of anhydrous pyridine and 6.75 g of hydroxylamine hydrochloride is added. The mixture is stirred until solution is achieved, left in a tightly closed container at room temperature for 4 days and then poured into 1.5 liters of water. The flask is rinsed with water and the combined separated crystals are collected on a Buchner funnel, washed with water and dried to constant weight in an oven at 100°. Yield 30 g (96.5% of theory) mp 220-223°. 

Krogsgaard-Larsen and co-workers have protected the P-keto functionality as a ketal as a modification to the traditional conditions so attack of hydroxylamine is directed towards the ester. They prepared hydroxamic acid 10 from ester 9 then cyclized with sulfuric acid to isoxazole 11, in route to 4,5,6,7-tetrahydroisoxazolo[5,4-c]pyridin-3-ol (THIP), a selective GABAa receptor agonist studied clinically for insomnia. 

In addition to their reactions with amines, Zincke salts also combine with other nitrogen nucleophiles, providing various A -substituted pyridine derivatives. Pyridine A -oxides result from the reaction with hydroxylamine, as exemplified for the conversion of Zincke salt 38 to the A -oxide 39 Reactions of Zincke salts with hydrazine, meanwhile, lead... 

A special type of ammonio group is represented by 4-( 1 -pyridinium)-pyridine and other azinium analogs. Such products often result from self-quaternization of highly reactive derivatives. A -(4-Pyridyl)-and A -(3-nitro-4-pyridyl)-pyridinium chloride hydrochlorides (121) react with aniline, chloride ion, and water to give 4-substituted pyridines plus pyridine. l-(2-Quinolyl)- and l-(4-quinolyl)-pyridinium salts undergo 2- and 4-substitution, respectively, with amines, anilines, hydroxylamine, phenols, alkoxides, mercaptans, and chloride... 

Reductive alkylations have been carried out successfully with compounds that are not carbonyls or amines, but which are transformed during the hydrogenation to suitable functions. Azides, azo, hydrazo, nitro and nitroso compounds, oximes, pyridines, and hydroxylamines serve as amines phenols, acetals, ketals, or hydrazones serve as carbonyls 6,7,8,9,12,17,24,41,42,58). Alkylations using masked functions have been successful at times when use of unmasked functions have failed (2). In a synthesis leading to methoxatin, a key... 

A mixture of 202 g 2-amino-5-chlorobenzophenone, 190 g hydroxylamine hydrochloride, 500 cc pyridine and 1,200 cc alcohol was refluxed for 16 hours, then concentrated in vacuc to dryness. The residue was treated with a mixture of ether and water. The water was separated, the ether layer containing a considerable amount of precipitated reaction product was washed with some water and diluted with petroleum ether. The crystalline reaction product, 2-amino-5-chlorobenzophenone-0 -oxime, was filtered off. The product was recrystallized from a mixture of ether and petroleum ether forming colorless prisms, MP 164° to 167°C.

Although these reactions are formulated as ionic reactions via 947 and 949, because of the apparent partial formation of polymers and inhibition of the fluoride-catalyzed reaction of pyridine N-oxide 860 with aUyl 82 or benzyltrimethylsilane 83 by sulfur or galvinoxyl yet not by Tempo, a radical mechanism caimot be excluded [61, 62]. The closely related additions of allyltrimethylsilane 82 (cf. Section 7.3) to nitrones 976 are catalyzed by TMSOTf 20 to give, via 977, either o-unsatu-rated hydroxylamines 978 or isoxazoHdines 979 (cf also the additions of 965 to 962a and 969 in schemes 7.20 and 7.21). 

In much the same vein, acetylation of optically active cf-norgestrel by means of acetic anhydride and tosic acid gives the 17-acetate (72). Reaction with hydroxylamine hydrochloride in pyridine affords the orally active progestin dexnorgestrel acetime (73). ...

Reaction of l-(3-chloropropyl)-6,7-dimethoxy-3-methylbenzo[c]pyrylium perchlorate with hydrazines and hydroxylamine in refluxing MeOH afforded 9,10-dimethoxy-6-methyl-, -4,6-dimethyl-l,2,3,4-tetrahydropyridazino[6,l-tf]isoquinoli-nium, and 9,10-dimethoxy-6-methyl-l,2,3,4-tetrahydro[l,2]oxazino[3,2- ]isoquinolinium, perchlorates, respectively <2004CHE1131>. 

The carbonyl group of the pyrrolizinone lc has been reduced with NaBH4 to give alcohol 171 <2004JME1448>. Condensation of lc with hydroxylamine in pyridine gave the oxime 172 in 95% yield. The latter was substituted by a chloramine chain to form the corresponding oxime ether 173 (Scheme 22) <2004JME1448>. 

Most of the synthetic approaches toward this ring system utilize N-amino pyridinium salts functionalized at the a-position with a carbonyl group. Thus, the amination of 2-(l,3-dioxolan-2-yl)pyridine with tosyl-hydroxylamine gave 78, whose reaction with urea in the presence of boron trifluoride-acetic acid gave 79, which gave the thermally unstable...
