In-Depth Information
The product of this reaction is an oxime resulting from 1,2-addition of
hydroxylamine to the carbonyl followed by dehydration. Please note that in the
dehydration step, the amine contributes a hydrogen to match the leaving hydroxide
group. The mechanism is illustrated below using arrow pushing.
.
The product of this reaction is an enamine resulting from 1,2-addition of dimethyl-
amine to the carbonyl followed by dehydration. Please note that in the dehydration
step, an adjacent methyl group contributes a hydrogen to match the leaving
hydroxide group. The mechanism is illustrated below using arrow pushing.
