Abstract

Cycloalkanones reacted with sodium pentacyanonitrosylferrate (II)(NP) to give red-brown or red-violet colored complexes under an alkaline condition. The solvolysis of the complexes gave ω-(hydroxyimino) alkanoic acids under a hot alkaline condition and gave ω- cyanoalkanoic acids or their esters in an acidic condition in good yields. These Products correspond to nitrosolysis products of cycloalkanones. The reaction mechanism was ...
