Nitrostyrenes to oximes with sodium dithionite

<< < (5/6) > >>

Hanswurst:
Does not work, extremely low yield.

arseholio:
How about zinc dithionite? I reckon it could reduce to the amine?

arseholio:
And what causes the discoloration of this reaction? Is the product come kind of bisulphite adduct od the ketone? Any suggestion for the reaction mechanics?

b6baddawg:
im really not sure how to explain but how about using sodium sulfite? p2p not the oxime tho

Thanks for reporting Hans!
can you go a bit into detail I assume you reduced some nitropropene to the alleged oxime followed by Mg reduction?
Did you isolate it in between?
