The reaction of N-alkylhydroxylamines and aqueous hydroxylamine with monosubstituted allenes gives nitrones and oximes, respectively, in good yields. DFT calculations support a proposed concerted, five-membered Cope-type hydroamination process, and calculated transition state energies are in excellent agreement with experimental observations.

A general, efficient, and metal-free method for aerobic oxidation of primary benzylamines to the corresponding oximes in good yields is catalyzed by N,N′,N″-trihydroxyisocyanuric acid in the presence of acetaldoxime and water as solvent. This practical method uses air as economic and green oxidant, water as green solvent, and tolerates a wide range of substrates.

Syntheses of oximes either provide mixtures of E and Z isomers or the thermodynamically preferred E isomer. Photoisomerization of aryl oximes via visible-light-mediated energy transfer (EnT) catalysis enables a mild and general method to achieve Z isomers. In a one-pot protocol for oxime isomerization and subsequent Beckmann rearrangement, alkyl groups migrate preferentially over aryl groups.
