After reading spric's post a little time ago swim got interested in methods for reducing nitro-compounds to hydroxylamines. There was also another post regarding catalytic hydrogenation producing hydroxylamines... This is interesting subject, because as far as swim knows, these methods would provide a whole lot of nice substances still legal in Europe, like the N-hydroxy derivatives of DOM and 2C-B to name a few.
What kind of difficulties could these hydroxylamines pose? Apparently Shulgin succeeded only in forming the oxalate salt of FLEA, for example. And what kind of yields do the mentioned methods give?
