title: Relative reactivity of anti- and syn-oximino carbonates and carbamates of 2-pyridylacetic acid esters.
abstract: [reaction: see text]anti-Oximes of 2-pyridylacetic acid esters are rapidly transformed to pyridine-2-carbonitrile under a variety of conditions while syn-oximes bearing tert-butyl esters can be conveniently deprotected to the corresponding carboxylic acid with subsequent fragmentation to the nitrile.
