A ruthenium-catalyzed ammoxidation of alkenyl oximes under mild and neutural condtions is described. In this method, tert-butyl nitrite plays a dual role, acting as an oxidant as well as a nitrogen source. This reaction avoids using any toxic radical initiators or cyanide reagents. This convenient and practical method offers an easy access to 5-cyanated isoxazolines in good to high yields, and shows good functional group tolerance and high efficiency. It is rather remarkable that this new reaction provides a strategically distinct approach based on non-stabilized radical intermediate and constructs C–O and C≡N triple bonds in a single-step. Moreover, the difunctionalization of unactivated olefins bearing oximes has been realized.
