反応手順

m-(Trifluoromethyl)phenylacetonitrile (30.0 g, 0.16 mol) was added to a suspension of hydroxylamine hydrochloride (18.8 g, 0.27 mol), methanol (145 mL) and 25% sodium methoxide/methanol (62 mL, 0.27 mol) at room temperature. The reaction mixture was then heated to reflux for 2 hours, cooled and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was partitioned between methylene chloride and water. The organic layer was separated and dried over magnesium sulfate. The organic layer was concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel with elution by hexane/ethyl acetate (8/2). The desired product (7.2 g, 21%) was obtained as a white solid, m.p. 91°-92° C.
