To a slowly stirred mixture of 73 gm (1 mole) of butylamine and 109 gm of a 12.2% aqueous solution of sodium tungstate is added (1.75 hr) with cooling to maintain a temperature of 15°C, 220 gm of 28% hydrogen peroxide. During this reaction 130 ml of ethanol is added portionwise to clarify the emulsion which tends to form. The green solution is stirred at 15°C for an additional hour after the addition has been completed. The reaction mixture is cooled, neutralized, and freed of the ethanol under reduced pressure. The solution is then saturated with sodium chloride and the oily product is separated and distilled to afford 50 gm (58%), b.p. 152°C. Evidently hydroxylamines may also be oxidized with hydrogen peroxide in the presence of sodium tungstate, as mentioned above. In a recent report, phenylglyoxime was prepared by a ferric chloride oxidation of the correspondingly hydroxylamine oxime.
