N-(1-Phenylethyl)hydroxylamine
CAS:N-(1-Phenylethyl)hydroxylamine is a research chemical that belongs to the class of oximes. It has been shown to react with a variety of amines and lipoxygenase in the presence of p-toluenesulfonic acid to form an N-hydroxyamino derivative. This reaction is stereospecific and enantioselective, which means it will only take place when the chiral center is on one side of the molecule. The hydroxylamine group is also synthesized by a novel asymmetric synthesis method involving ketones. This synthetic process uses tert-butyl and primary amines, which are racemized during the reaction.
