Light-induced radical addition to oximes: a general route to branched primary amines
Zakhar M. Rubanov, Vitalij V. Levin, Alexander D. DilmanThe first reductive alkylation of unprotected oximes using various radical precursors is described. The method is based on radical addition at the activated oxymino group followed by reduction of the N–O bond to afford amines.
