N-(3,3-dimethylbutan-2-ylidene)hydroxylamine

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: 400 ml of water, 92 g (0.8 mol) of 3,3-dimethylbutan-2-one oxime and 3.4 g of LiOH were initially charged, and 70 g (1.6 mol) of ethylene oxide were introduced such that the gas was taken up completely. Thereafter, the mixture was stirred at room temperature (RT) for 8-12 hours for the continued reaction. The upper phase was removed, admixed with ethyl acetate and washed with water. The organic phase was concentrated under reduced pressure at 100-200 mbar. Residue: 114-120 g of colorless oil, which corresponds to a yield of 90% yield; b.p. 106° C./35 mbar. for the continued reaction The upper phase was removed washed with water The organic phase was concentrated under reduced pressure at 100-200 mbar
