Abstract
The reaction ofZ-2-furaldoxime with oxirane afforded theN-alkylation product,viz., α-2-furyl-N-(2-hydroxyethyl)nitron, in good yield.E-Benzaldoxime gave predominantly theO-alkylation product, while itsZ isomer was converted into a mixture with theN-alkylation product slightly predominating.
