Procedure
A solution of 4-hexyloxybenzaldehyde (3.83 g, 18.6 mmol) in 120 mL of benzene was refluxed with N-tert-butylhydroxylamine (3.32 g, 37.2 mmol) for 18 hours. The reaction mixture was then concentrated by rotary evaporation and the resulting residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography using 50:50 ethyl acetate/hexane to afford the title compound (2.88 g, 55.8% yield) as a solid, m.p. 69.0° C.
