Hydroxyamine hydrochloride → N-({6-[(hydroxyimino)methyl]pyridin-2-yl}methoxy)-1-(1-methyl-1H-tetrazol-5-yl)-1-phenylmethanimine

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 6-[({[(1-methyl-1H-tetrazol-5-yl)(phenyl)methylene]amino}oxy)methyl]pyridine-2-carbaldehyde (1.8 g, 5.58 mmol, 1 eq.) in 10 ml of pyridine was added hydroxylamine hydrochloride 0.427 g, 6.14 mmol, 1.1 eq.). The reaction was stirred for 6 hrs and stood overnight. The pyridine was evaporated, and the residue was partitioned between EtOAc and water. The organic layer was separated, dried over MgSO4 and concentrated to give N-({6-[(hydroxyimino)methyl]pyridin-2-yl}methoxy)-1-(1-methyl-1H-tetrazol-5-yl)-1-phenylmethanimine (1.66 g, 88% yield) as a pale brown solid.
