Synthesis of Nitrones Using the Methyltrioxorhenium/Hydrogen Peroxide System.
Secondary amines are oxidized by the methyltrioxorhenium/hydrogen peroxide system to the corresponding nitrones in excellent yield. The results provide a further example of the parallel between the chemistry of this metal system and that of the dioxiranes.
