Abstract
Simple thermal conditions, previously found to minimize hydroxylamine decomposition (t-BuOH, 110 °C), allow the condensation of ketones and hydroxylamines to form exocyclic, acyclic, and α,β-unsaturated ketonitrones with benzylic, linear, and branched nitrogen substituents in modest to excellent isolated.
