Beckmann Rearrangement; Beckmann Fragmentation
E. Beckmann, Ber. 19, 988 (1886).
Acid-mediated isomerization of oximes to amides. Oximes of cyclic ketones give ring enlargements:
Certain oximes, particularly those having a quarternary anti to the hydroxyl, are likely to undergo the Beckmann fragmentation to form nitriles instead of amides:
Application to steroidal oximes: P. Catsoulacos, D. Catsoulacos, J. Heterocyclic Chem. 30, 1 (1993). Reviews: L. G. Donaruma, W. Z. Heldt, Org. React. 11, 1-156 (1960); R. E.
