Various C-aryl and C-alkyl-nitrones were synthesized within 0.5–2h via condensation of an equimolar amount of aldehydes and N-substituted-hydroxylamines under solvent-free conditions in a ball-mill apparatus. Reactions can be performed without the need of excluding air and moisture and yields the expected products with no need for further purification. The study has been complemented by Differential Scanning Calorimetry ( ...
