Abstract

Abstract Aldehyde O-alkyl oximes were converted into ketones with high yields when they were treated with alkyllithium compounds or Grignard reagents followed by hydrolysis. Amines as reductive alkylation products of aldehyde O-alkyl oximes were also obtained by BH 3 reduction before hydrolysis.
