Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 3-phenylcyclohexanone (0.060 g, 0.3444 mmol) in 95% ethanol (2 ml) was added 50% hydroxylamine in water (0.2110 ml, 3.444 mmol), and the reaction was stirred at ambient temperature overnight. The reaction was diluted with EtOAc and washed with water and saturated sodium chloride. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated to yield 60 mg of the title compound (92.07% yield).
