W. Lossen, Ann. 161, 347 (1872); 175, 271, 313 (1874).
Conversion of a hydroxamic acid to an isocyanate via the intermediacy of its O-acyl, sulfonyl, or phosphoryl derivative. In the presence of amines, ureas are formed; in the presence of water, amines containing one less carbon than the starting material, are generated:
