Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 6-phenyl 1-hexanal (4.93 g, 28.0 mmol, 1 equiv) in methanol (50 ml) was added N-tert-butylhydroxylamine (3.00 g, 33.6 mmol, 1.2 equiv), and the mixture was stirred at rt. for 4 h. Concentration of the mixture gave a light colored oil which was purified by flash chromatography (EtOAc) to give N-tert-butyl-C-(5-phenylpentyl)nitrone (4.39 g, 89.0%) as a colorless oil: 1H NMR (CD3OD) δ 7.28–7.11 (m, 6H), 2.66–2.24 (m, 4H,), 1.72–1.24 (m, 15H).
