- Process for producing N-alkylhydroxylamines
-
A novel process for producing an N-alkylhydroxylamine of the formula (I) wherein R represents an alkyl group which may be substituted with least one substituent, which comprises reacting an N-mesyl-O-(p-alkoxybenzyl)hydroxylamine or an N-mesyl-O-(2,4,6-trialkylbenzyl)hydroxylamine with an alkyl halide of the formula (III) wherein R is as defined above and X represents a halogen atom, under a basic condition to produce the corresponding N-alkyl-N-mesyl-O-(p-alkoxybenzyl)hydroxylamine or N-alkyl-N-mesyl-O-(2,4,6-trialkylbenzyl)hydroxylamine, and treating the resulting compound with a solution of a phenol compound, and novel N-alkyl-N-mesyl-O-(p-alkoxybenzyl)hydroxyl amines and N-alkyl-N-mesyl-O-(2,4,6-trialkylbenzyl)hydroxylamines which are useful as intermediates in the above process.
